The Leaning Tower of Pisa

The Tower of Pisa started leaning
Builders knew by floor three the meaning
Soft earth they say
Still stands to this day
 More than 16 feet off center careening

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 7/9/2020 7:37:00 AM There are A LOT of leaning houses in my neighbourhood. We're on a pretty solid spot, over a hundred year old house, but my girlfriend several blocks over, the front of her house has sunk probably close to 2'!
