Bales of hay



Collatinus and Brutus overthrew

their Roman monarchy.

Brothers in arms. They extended their arms

and threw all their king’s hay

(masses of it) into the wide Tiber.

The hay masses became

a landmass on the bottle green water.

This was the saga that

brought wealth and trade to the City of Rome.

Fodder became a field.
