Lamentable Lips Rodin's 'The Kiss'

.

                                                     Rodin
                                                     Rodin
                                    Dante inspired that kiss

                                           The truth be told
                                          half this earth has
                                              felt those soft
                                                       yet
                                             lamentable lips
