Cleopatra Cleopatra
Beautiful ,Ambitious
Queen of Egypt
found shelter
in
arms
of two Roman emprors
Cleopatra
a beautiful
deer
an excellent planner
a skillful bargainer
an extraordinary manoevre -maker
in war
and in
peace
your ship
your weapons
dazzling
many tried to disfigure you
but
your proud
sacrifice
will remain forever undefeated

Mona,
I enjoyed your poem - I would have liked to
hear
the voice of Anthony in an impassioned reply:
SIC
FRIATUR CRUSTUM DULCE
-------------------------
What more
was I
Marc Anthony to do?!
Having discovered love...
and,
falling for an ungovernable woman,
in a country
beside the nile
in a city within a city.
even before
the occupation the heart
was totally engulfed in flames.
How have I come to this? a man in love.
How
can I return to Rome a captive
without her? - I'd prefer a
bed in hades, first!
Tell me... what good is living
forever
without the kisses of my dear beloved?
What
good is being conquer...
What good is even being a Cesar
without my Cleopatra's ungovernable love! ~ masapoet
