roman legions trudged through borgetto the evening before
camping at lake tresimano where the next June dawn 
2241 years ago almost to this day 
befogged betwixt the mongrel hordes of Hannibal they were
defeated

cyclists traversing lake‘s circuit criss cross this solo walker
and the lone Kress 1200R robot lawnmower tending its grounds 
should they wish sight of the 258 borgetto inhabitants 
remaining according to the 2001 census they would be 
disappointed

later that day massimo of nearby passignano informs that 
borgetto lies at the intersection of umbria and tuscany
occupies the communes tuoro, cortona and castiglione
to which when property taxes are due they are paid
trisected
