64
The third book I ever read cover to cover
was “The Agony and the Ecstasy.”
The biography of Michelangelo.
His life, work and struggles with the pope.
I loved the book. Hated the movie.
Mostly because I disliked Charlton Heston
His hands didn’t look like they could
work marble to me. Let alone paint.
To this day I feel connected to Michelangelo.
They say he cut marble like it was butter.
I wonder if he suffered from carpel tunnel
and repetitive stress syndrome?
I wonder if they had to take his mallet
From his cold dead hands.
