Picked up this book simply because I loved the title- the first story was disturbing though, let's see how the rest of them feel.

Spent a day in Milan, two nights in Venice and three in Rome, but I need to go again, to see places like Napoli. It is a beautiful country โค

I held the moon that hung behind the Parthenon 
For a moment and a half before I made a wish,
And flung it over my left shoulder into the waters
At the feet of Oceanus into the fountain of Trevi. 

I walked through the corridors of the Colosseum-
As it lay in ruins, its marbles stolen to build domes
Its stone walls broken, bare retelling horrors, deaths
Leading out into cobbled streets where palaces rose. 

History unfolds, stories are written, victors defeated-
But the only constant is the water and wine that flows, 
Empires fall, however tall they build their monuments 
What remains are exaggerations in sculpted stones.

Something I wrote after a short holiday in Italy last month.
