Great Regulars: This week we're pleased to feature

a poem by Susan Comninos, "Rome Visits When I'm in the Bath." The poem is a bit of a maze. On the surface there's the juxtaposition of Jewish and Christian identities, but then more layers begin to emerge. Do the two identities refer to different modes of inspiration, to routes through which the free-associative mind travels?

from Forward: The Arty Semite: Getting Out of the Roman Bath: Poetry by Susan Comninos
