Tilt as you will, the edifice stands unmoved, untouched, aloof, reserved,
unknowing and uncaring for transgressions, or tilters, most at last
unnerved.
It stands and mocks your every effort, oblivious to your fire and deep
frustration,
why tilt then ? Are you stupid ? Or possessed of more than normal
expectation ?
One tilts because one must, it is in fact at last a useless and involuntary
action,
or do in fact some tilters then indeed expect that they might gain some
satisfaction ?
May one expect that tilting when well done will bring such ugly edifices
swiftly tumbling?
Or be realistic and then realise with sorrow, that even the attempt is
humbling ?
Who knows? Who cares? Who is to say that tilting is a waste of worthy
time in fact?
Perhaps less tilting and more thought, a subtle and intriguing exercise in
guile and tact ?
The monuments stand still, regardless of the tilters, now for aeons slowly
surely wearing,
with minor damage, but the turrets and emplacements, yet brace the sky
uncaring.
What price then such an edifice to topple? Worth the nerves and weapons worn
in fight ?
perhaps t?were well to leave the edifice alone, untouched, unknown, and
careless of it?s ugly plight ?
Ah would that t?were so simple, for as long as monstrous edifices are
designed and built,
some men will attempt to down them at a stroke, or be obliged at least in
hope, to tilt.
