Mason Vincentino

The vastness of it all mi ancestors the shores of pastel climbing beneath my feet essence of Veneto the wildness of black cherries bluntness of plums strings of grapes opened just so found behind a glass of Merlot singing lemoncello crowding tastes buds through rows of lemon trees crawling olive branches sweeping the stone ways a covenant of mi Nonna dancing throughout Rome mi ancestors Mason Veneto builders an yet cemeteries where religious statues buildings tombstones are crafted by the blood of my ancestors hands all over Italy the vastness of it all remembering mi Nonna remembering Rome
