The Last Pieta, In Florence Poem by James Arlington Wright

The Last Pieta, In Florence

Rating: ★4.3
♡ ♥


The whole city
Is stone, even
Where stone
Doesn't belong.
What is that old
Man's public face
Doing sorrowing,
Secretly a little,
A little above and
A little back from
What is that stone
Doing sorrowing
Where stone
Doesn't belong?
