Интересная табличка "Vexillatio" , это отметка что оно из подразделений 10го легиона здесь возвело подземный резервуар для сбора воды. Над ним находится церковь времен крестоносцев, с потрясающими фрагментами фресок. А еще в римских легионах была обычна практика, когда ветеран завершал свою службу он получал надел земли. Ну и соответственно где действовал легион возникали поселения бывших легионеров, под Иерусалимом таких деревень было даже несколько. На сегодняшний день некоторые арабские деревни сохранили искаженные названия деревень легионеров. #legion #fretensis #abugosh #archeology #travelinisrael #village #israel_best #israel #igisrael #inscription #tabule #Израиль #тургид #туризм #гидвизраиле #экскурсиивизраиле #экскурсии #путешествие #легион #римляне #надпись Олег Калачов - Гид по Израилю [phone] (at Abu Ghosh) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnAxTzFHzRO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gfrn2tn56xxi

A review of "Fretensis: In the Image of a Blind God, volume 1," by Dennis Villelmi

A review of “Fretensis: In the Image of a Blind God, volume 1,” by Dennis Villelmi

With “Fretensis: In the Image of a Blind God, volume 1” Dennis Villelmi expertly enmeshes the reader in a twisting, troubling narrative that is both mythic and tragically personal for the poem’s speaker. It’s a unique work, employing both arcane myth and personal impressions in equal measure. And it’s a hell of a ride. “Fretensis” is a 56-page book of dark, modernist poetry divided into three…

She, too, had a memoir, not unlike mine, and it was over slugs in Seire’s Tavern…

On Samhain's Own Account by Dennis Villelmi - Today's featured #poem on our #poetry blog

Don’t stand there and scowl at me,

as if I now stand an accused “collector.”

I told you the roles wouldn’t work; they never have.

  You, costumed vatican goblin of the sterile “mounds,”

you’ve had me stand my back to this sickeningly white and pauline

wall, and I’ve humored your belief that you could cause me to mute

my shadow.

Shadows suffer not the Vatican anymore than they

suffered Druids, or…
