Cathedral

                   the twinkle-spired cathedral
                   shadows the barons and the buffoons
                   who juggle at their pleasure
                   the dwarf slaves, who tumble
                   and bumble for applause
                   and the kept women with boustiers
                   who have nothing left to hide

                   the barons muse
                   about tearing it down
                   to build their palace
                   to emulate the grandeur
                   of Rome
