Happy Lupercalia


A merry Lupercalia to all!

shadow of the wolf
falls across the turning year;
Romans run amok

stray winds of winter
whipping through high narrow streets
- laughing naked youth

no hearts and flowers
only howling at the moon
and waiting for spring.

Thank you for stopping by at my blog and explaining me a bit more about the woodpecker, it was very interesting!
I'm currently trying to learn a bit more about the greek and roman pantheon, so this was very useful!

And I wondered why my lupus was acting up. Obviously it was just time.
