The Lovers of Modena Disturbed

The Lovers of Modena Disturbed

 

When a scream was released

sixteen hundred

years ago, but heard only

yesterday ..

Their secret was out in seconds

even before

all the rumours got underway

and it spread

like a wildfire, unchecked far

and wide ..

Tho’ until a date, place and number

were all duly

assigned .. they were nothing

but history and

all their bones were taken away ..

 Had it not been

for a freak of an accident tho’

They might well

have laid there forever, in their

permanent

and loving embrace, frozen

in time ..

With a reason for their untimely

demise, both

conveniently and reverently denied ..
