Steel Monsters
Transmission tower or an electric pylon
Electricity has moved swiftly on
You have been forgotten
Left to decay and wither slowly away
A giant sculpture of the once modern day
Now terribly aged and in total disarray
You’ve definitely had your day
Standing alone in the deserted green fields
No electricity runs through your distorted twisted steel hands
Electric lines just hang randomly down
Like twisted, unfixable, heavy bouncing tinsel
As your life slowly dwindles
In the darkest night
Turning into a giant steel monster
Of such a technological fright
Made by humans
Once held with such pride and delight
Now left to rot
Now forgot
An outdated monster
Still stands tall
A reminder of old technological times Gone before
Humans will always want more
Forgetting about what went before
Steel monsters strewn across the green grassed floor
