Rome a beautiful city
\nFor Starlings yesterday
\nSaw a warring faction
\nExplosions there to stay
\nA new year for inhabitants
\nAnd the people thinking they
\nShould try and set off fireworks
\nFrustrated by the way<\/p>\n
Lockdowns had been ordered
\nFreedoms just to fly
\nA new year in the offing
\nNo thought of birds on high
\nAn unconscionable duration
\nA hindrance so to say
\nExplosives frightening tiny ears
\nPerpetual all the way<\/p>\n
Disorientating spirits
\nStartling those who
\nLive within the confines
\nOf the city high they do
\nFlying through the gables
\nOn the gutters sit
\nFireworks every which way
\nTheir blackness suddenly lit<\/p>\n
Up by vapid balls of fire
\nAnd thunderclaps from hell
\nThe cordite and the ugly smoke
\nAnd the persistent smell
\nUnending somewhat timeless
\nDoomsday apparently
\nFlying into windows
\nIn an effort to be free<\/p>\n
Their bodies strewn upon the streets
\nKnocked down
\nLocked down
\nThey
\nVictims of the great frustration
\nFound on New Years Day<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
