On 'the Conversion Of Saint Paul'by Caravaggio-Ten Cuckoos (The End) Poem by Paolo Giuseppe Mazzarello

The dazzled men have to change their life, oh dear Lesbia.
One of the most famous is Oedipus
He really dazzled himself with his own hands.
He could no longer love his mom, as well as any woman.
Saul lets the Almighty do it and Caravaggio painted it.
In Rome, at the church of Santa Maria del Popolo one can see
The future 'apostle of people' who says:
'I could not go on this way'.
He had enough of the reflections of old life in his actual one.
The Saint stood single and I had his conversion but not his vocation.
I found Our Lord in that picture where the near old man says:
'What is this guy doing? '
Also the horse has something to say:
'I can not tread on a man who is in these troubles'.
Lesbia, through this character I got to you.
I shall have something to do again
After having fought the good struggle,
Hold the faith, the virile ideal
Before my vessel sets its sails.
