Open for rent
waiting to be bought,
buyers keep
to what will be ahead.

Whether it will be
a well known place
to what will become of it.

The vacant buildings
are of antique age
that will sell
in the Post Gazette pages.

For those fellows
who are mellow,
will probably be the beginning payer.

It will be a game
of cat and rat chase.

Since the buildings
are already decorated
with everything Queen Elizabeth
and also the furniture.

So those who want to venture
into a wonderful masterpiece.

There surely will be feedback
from people near and far.
As to do their part
in buying this work of art.

Not saying to only go for looks,
but those people may think we are crooks,
but saying this there is a meaning
because the Queen was once in every one.

Everybody finding out this
will surely dismiss
them from their old job.

As to speak out
of what will be newfound,
but old when seen
with the bare eye.

When certain individuals see
they become so popular
and well known
that criminals are throwing stones
at the buildings
because they have no feelings,
of what great places they are.

This reminds me of a little rant I had not too long ago, while driving through Uptown, Minneapolis. There are a lot of beautiful houses there that get mistreated inside and out. I always hate that because people forget that they are a peice of history.

Enjoyed the poem.
