Notes | Poverty in the midst of Vatican riches is described in this short poem. The speaker contrasts the riches and wealth of the Vatican, with its monuments, plaques, and artifacts in praise of Jesus, with the poverty of a woman who lives close by. The irony of the situation, in light of Catholic teachings, is not lost on the speaker. |
