Made of folded steel
encased in concrete
overcoated by black stucco
in an upstairs space
evening out
in a house plan
with fragments
of get aways
cast in place
exposing the ancient
adjacent separations
weaving through medieval
alleyways like past days
masquerading as today
within ill-placed stairways
and constrained layouts
at the risk of collapse
in unmitigated layers
right in the historic core
along with a cannon ball
replete with its bomb shards
in oak and terra cotta
redesigned by desire
found outside on site
while dining
beneath a climbing
white wisteria vine...
