Why did they put up with the charm? simple people were likely kept in ignorance removed from manners of lesser noblity Patricians wouldn't invite them Moliere would be heard by royal ears and a straw maker would eek out existance on a street named after his trade. I wanted a definite answer to the pomp the glory and the regal pose portrait shots, gracious demeanors part of a registered savoir-faire went with matched hat and formal wear from which spawned a casual look but the spacious mansion still exists rented out for annual reads one presents poetry nights later under a Circus Marcellus moon and sensed a Roman public... centuries after togas were shed. Summer crowds, poetry pilgrims alike stood for exhuberant palace expenses straw makers are but a few in local towns plaques of marble title cobbled lanes the talk is polite, there's familiar gossip as long as the wretched are kept from view one must be pleasant with dinner guests turn one way, not the other to talk never know whose hand you'll shake in the House of Barberini marked by royal bee seals. |
