Poem #2

You can check out today's prompt here: write a poem as if you are someone or something else from his/her/it perspective. Here is my newest attempt prompted by my visit to the Skydeck today with the lovely Gardner family.

Sears
Tower

Stretching from the marshland

I am strong

Landmark to Midwestern

Gumption and go-to

1,450 feet and 110 stories

Filled with more stories

Than anyone can imagine

I was Tsar

Of the Skyline

Conquered by a cornice

And the death of an empire
