Joy in Stone

Joy in stone

Bridges stand like Colossus of Rhodes
Seven wonder of ancient worlds
Take abuse and wind and rain
But they stand tall all over us

See some tagger about to do some blasphemy
Sacrilegious History
These sands of time rise above
He won’t let it be defaced

It’s like time says take a timeout
Pieces of art designed to transport
The past into the present
How can a young fool do the deed
While Banksy says

Make ‘em smile While they piss
Fields of history used by so many to say little
They stand on Gods shoulders
Straddling different places

Hoping they don’t deface time
Nothing wrong with putting a tag
Just don’t put it on some history
