Saint George, Triumphant


Image borrowed from Bing

SAINT GEORGE, TRIUMPHANT

points at
parts of bodies
scattered

legs without
a torso
standing upright

headless naked
figure on
a pedestal

& bending over
drops
a crown

a naked
woman’s body
with no head

& on the stairs
2 heads
an arm

a torso
&
a hand


Jerome Rothenberg
