Nelson's On His Column
There will always be an England: roast beef and Yorkshire pud assure the most fainthearted that all is for the good. Is anyone still doubtful? This thought our hopes restore: Marmite, baked beans and crumpets provision us galore. Coffee at eleven, at five o'clock high tea, banishing the terrors that met us at the Somme, kept us and Big Ben ticking and will to Kingdom...

Lonely Heart Column
Is it too late to go on dates with ladies, fat or thin? An ad I place to find embrace; replies come flooding in The first is brash and has a 'tache; the second, very gruff; the third decrees she'd like to see me standing in the buff. I pay for drinks and then methinks I'll never find the one: it's cost me pounds...

Broken Column wrapped in female form split down the centre more than femininity exposed Breasts capture the eye Her softness Confusing Arousing head held high Her long black hair flows cascades across decades immortalized Tears streaming down a saddened face Doves crying to be understood cheerful colors confuse the minds eye What thoughts lie beneath that unibrow Beauty within painted distortions Who is her oppressor Look deep Emotions overexposed Is this her living...

Constantin Brancusi's "the Column Without End"
There once was a man who talked to the stone Calming down all its fears of being alone They spent all his life synchronized into shape At one point - both realized there was no escape "I'll turn you into a "Bird", "A Silent Muse"and a "Kiss" and so many sculptures..." - the artist promised - "I'll give you myself "......

Column Left March
The sheriff at high noon cries out in lonely solitude not to forsake him; But no one comes, and the vocal majority makes their plans to protect personal wealth Standing alone against all odds, the sheriff in defense of law and order fears; That all hope may soon come to a brutal end. The beat of...
