Caligula was driving the Positano bus today. <br />Swinging the wheel ferociously. <br />Small brown face, muttering. <br />The pallid barbarians, <br />surging up without valid tickets, <br />risked surly “thumbs down” <br />but today <br />Caligula was in a good mood. <br /> <br />Coming back from Positano, <br />I recognised Nero‘s <br />heavy handsome head <br />leaning from the bus window. <br />Humorous wrinkles were <br />all that showed time had passed <br />since his portrait bust had been placed <br />in the Archaeological Museum. <br /> <br />Two Roman Emperors, gainfully employed! <br />Thanks <br />to the Sita Bus Company.<br /><br />Janice Windle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/italian-collection-jobs-for-the-boys/
