At the Tomb of St. Catherine of Sienna in Rome
At the Tomb of St. Catherine of Sienna in Rome
Girls forgivably addicted
To Instagram reels still kneel
And cross themselves
And kiss their thumbs
At the tomb of St. Catherine
Of Sienna whose incorruptible
Head is actually in Sienna
Then with pink pens
With which they journal
About Nico or Giovanni
Write prayer petitions
For an alcoholic uncle
Or a grandmother
The uncle's mother
Who is losing her memory
Balling them up afterwards
Not to throw them away
But to better throw them
Nearer the tomb
