Driving around East Cleveland, I came upon these pillars on a side street. I asked someone what they signified and was told that they had something to do with the Rockefeller era. Hmmmm...............


Poem Artwork

What do you signify
Two standing pillars
Reaching up to the sky
You saw your day

Were you the entrance to
Mansions and glory
Glitz diamonds and Wall Street
This entrance way

Gone are the glory days
Came the Depression
Pillars of power stand
Strong to this day

Cleveland has never been the same. Even the Cavaliers can't do a repeat. I've seen two replicas of that kind of classic entry here… Roman Forest (grandiose), a failed telemedia land sale promotion. My university was given nearly worthless property there. And, Sugar Creek, one of the affluent Southwest properties in my area where you will find football stars and entertainers.

A very observant poem of bygone glory.

Many things may pass, but the pillars of yesteryear still stand strong. Astute observation. John

Hey Doll ... nice observation & nice write !

Could it be that you simply entered ...
The Twilight Zone ???

As Jean Luc Piccard was apt to say:

"Make It So !" 😻✌️😻 Tom.

Oh, if only they could keep their symbolic nature of ancient cities of stone and art, of philosophy, and, lest we forget, the pure, unadulterated treachery of much of of our ancestral lineage that continues today, only instead of walking in sandals, they cruise through such portals in vehicles of unnatural worth.

There are things that can withstand what destroys everything around them. Good write.
