Earl Schumacker Poet Didactic

Facilitating the Facility

Facilitating The Facility

Solid structures should stay outside where they belong
With a firm facility of understanding occupational standards
In their simplicity of design
Edifices don’t build themselves in wildernesses 
No one does
It’s not civilized
Loud noises must be nurtured in the city
To appreciate the sacrifice   
The road to success is always under construction
Edifices have to rise above it all 
Iron buildings need to breathe in rust
By starting from the outside in
And stand alone in the metropolis    
Or else they don’t
Utilized to work in their basic functionality
Buildings take on the life of corporations, homes and offices
Certain to house nobility in the structure of their intent
To stand forever with or without rent
They need not speak
Unless they’re spoken to
Being affiliated with architects and engineers
Gives them a certain air of prominence and prestige  
Sky scrapers rise with lofty names
Towering in affluence fills their halls with purpose
Facilitating the facility is under way
They rise with loud noises and voices to the sky
