L'incoronazione di Poppea

Monteverdi wrote of love in
this famous opera and rightly so.

Nero was a man of intensity,
not always with wisdom,
as we know.

Do we crown our Poppeas
of beauty and stature?

How about the Octavias
we promised love ever after?

you yourself are made anew by the washing of his water and his blood, crowned are you by his own passion, conquered with joyful charisma. question not what has been accomplished. selah.
