the voyage to my room is an uphill battle; it is
quite an insurmountable quest. The trek to my cell

smooth and slippery, though, but rocky and
perilous. The portal lies beyond the staircase? I

are hidden by nearly a dozen posters of varying
sizes and of varying content, mostly expressing
various political ideas, or taste in music.
Shelves protrude from a wall adjacent to the door
topped by a number of knickknac...

place however he did rebuild a better Rome, for
the most part that is. A large portion, and
arguably too large of a portion, was expropriated
for the use of his own residence to be called the
Domus Aurea. This is translated: The Golden House,
