There are no gods amongst men
As a shrine, we salute, make immortal
Who, though, withstands the public gaze
Stands the test of time in changing tides
History has a brutal past; lest we forget
Today a hero; tomorrow, a villain, truth catches up
Some victories take generations to right the wrongs
And so some statues do not stand the test of time
Injustice must be removed, but by who?
How to heal the past and brighten the day
Art soothes the soul and nourishes the mind
Let art be the light that marks the time
Finding beauty, exposing the life of an ever-changing muse
Sculpting a better tomorrow while reflecting on the past
