All Comments on 'Early Renaissance Men Having Grappa'

you drop us right amongst them, bringing it all to life. it's quite lovely and whoever's responsible for giving you that E is bang on target.

Five.

Very well, Marco. Probably a good thing the sons of Genghis had other things to attend to.

would have given it 200

but that matters not because this is such a clear image and such sly revealing language that it's like looking at a painting. And such a spare telling dramatic monologue. Perfect and well deserving of the E. Cent Anni!

Where o where did i step put of the time machine this time? Wherever it is, it feels genuine. The right king of having-a-glass nonchalance, the worldly concerns of the well off burgess, and a healthy dash of ethnocentrism.

Congratulations on the 'E' very well deserved

Getting a recommend.

I love the idea you came up with as well as the way it is expressed.

wonderful poetry. E is deserved.

I don't know whether amusement is the appropriate or expected response to your poem, but I cannot stem the tide of chuckles. I shake my head at the arrogance, the sense of entitlement, and the unvarnished greed evinced in the speaker's words here, so typical of men such as he! A very interesting dramatic monologue, sir! I like it! :)

I have to say I also like the critique of the Roman (Catholic) Empire implicit in this poem, too. The history-lover in me is quivering with excitement! LOL!
