ARLINGTON COURTHOUSE IMPLOSION

Why this low-grade eyesore rated a CNN camera crew. Was younger than me by two years but organisms structures. When we moved here pre-kids thought the walkable neighborhood quiet. Well it was transitional too close to the cemetery. What gets me is the graceful degradation of some eras. Whereas others receding too fast into their comet tails. Whipped withered by the dustclouds of their own furious commerce. Worn down to a QuickTime decompressed over coffee.
