@AbandonedAmerica This article reminded me of a couple of the school buildings where I grew up.
The high school is gone except for the auditorium/gymnasium which is now an auto body repair shop. The building was very old (my grandfather attended it) and was replaced in 1977.
The grade school (K through 3rd) looked like this a few years ago. My grandfather was on the school board when it was built in 1939. It still looks pretty solid but I’m sure that leaving it empty won’t help it.
huddled a hug of eiderdown in silence the present speaks; if nothing a balustrade of fancies beneath a simple life he seeks.
Abandoned AmericaMy soul is full of whispered song
My blindness is my sight
The shadows that I feared so long
Are all alive with light.

Ich denke an dieses alte Bauernhaus, verstorben
C. 1933
Ich frage mich, wie viele gespielt haben
Auf dem abgenutzten Linol
Zwischen den Mahlzeiten bei der Mutter
Die Knöchel
Hat der Staub beendet, die Ernte hat die
Rinder
Die Zeitung, die durch den Boden spähte
Erzählt von besseren Zeiten
Wenn du durchhalten kannst
Nur ein bisschen länger.
