reflections of a bank




reflections of a bank,
windows guarded by scrolled iron,
vault open, empty

Rain has streaked the double glass doors protected by iron scroll work of the Bank in Eldon. Seen through the glass, wooden chairs piled on top of each other, wooden benches set haphazardly in the middle of the floor, a pile of lumber, the Great American Seal inlaid on the floor, the door of the vault open, the glass door of a store across the street, next to a red Coca Cola sign, closed, bare trees in the distance held inside the reflections of an abandoned bank.
