Immortal Florence
Corbin Scott Carnell
June/July 1991
Dante and Michelangelo

You were here;

Brunelleschi, Donatello,

Savonarola, the Medici,

Machiavelli, Ghiberti,

Leonardo da Vinci—

All left their mark;

But none is so vividly present

As the Florentine dogs

As I walk these ancient streets.

Looking steadily down.
