Baker Pratt
Tarpeian Rock (La Rupe Tarpea)
This is the rock from which traitors were pushed to their death in Ancient Rome
But if you tried that today, I imagine someone in the 3 story building next door
might see you.
Or, the body could land on the hood of a car below.
Yes, executions might be tricky now,
but don't worry.
You can pick-up the discarded leaflets,
and papers,
and wrappers,
while you're here.
