Grandiose Creation
Though we try to carve out the green manifestation of which we dwell.
Through layers of brick and immense will, we engraved our presence.
Until nature duly strikes; the once coveted, is devoured by the landlord.
The ubiquitous endeavour maintains, even when coated by leafy lush.
A magnum opus of each culture, intended to astound the current breed.
A ghost of wonder and amazement, eaten by the hands of father time.
The distant past, is ever so tangible, forever relishing these antiquities.
Nature will restore the wild, still we are etched forever, forgotten never.
