In the Sistine Chapel
tourists meander, chatter,
‘Silenzio’ commands the megaphone,
strident voice reverberates,
penetrates into every crevice,
fuses into walls and ceiling,
their sublime beauty a mute presence.
‘In Silence’

In the Sistine Chapel

strident voice reverberates,
penetrates into every crevice,
fuses into walls and ceiling,
their sublime beauty a mute presence.
