Lion
As darkness descends…

Three photos of ODU at nighttime.
The lion (the Monarch, Big Blue). Thanks to another piece of artwork, he almost looks like a rhino:
I can’t explain why the staircase on our parking deck spoke to me. Maybe it was the repeating form and shape.
Sure, it’s not “art”, but to me, it’s an interesting photo. 🙂

You can’t hide your Lion Eyes….
By Silver Blue
From Kenton, Ohio, 1996:
See the top of the building? There’s a lion hiding there.
In 2006, a decade later….movin’ on up…
movin’ on up….
…then coming into focus…
I don’t know what this building used to be, or why the lion head adorns it.
I don’t even know when it was cleaned and painted.
I do know it’s the pollution, however, that causes the discolouration…
It’s been 4 years since I’ve been back to Kenton, and I wonder if the building is still standing, if the lion is still there, gazing at the Court House, keeping watch over the city.
