Rome....

....Georgia, where the Capitoline Wolf feeds,
Romulus and Remus fill their needs,
the statue a gift from Mussolini in nineteen twenty-nine.
It looks kind of out of place, but this town is fine.

This was cotton country many years ago,
before the boll weevil came and stole the show,
now auto parts and tires provide a jobs here,
to the city with seven hills and three rivers, give a cheer.
Top:  The "statue".
Middle: Elevated view of the city.
Bottom: An old mill, very large wheel.
