The Campo del Ghetto Nuovo ...

I'm sitting on a marble bench in the Campo del Ghetto Nuovo - 

A cool wind stirs the leaves of the gentle trees -

Tall buildings cast long shadows - most of the green shutters are closed or barely opened - 

Children play chase around a wellhead -

Americans search out the Jewish Museum - 

Across the campo, I can see the holocaust memorial - 

A scholar shuts his book - 

The hissing transport opens its mouth -
