A Triangle Triumph

"IF you were

a tree, what tree would you be–or like to be?

a color?

a building?

a song?

Make the title something along the lines of “Song of My Self.”


I am in a prime
location, have 
my own corner.
Need stories?
I have twenty-two.
See my steel
frame?  Built
to last. Notice
my triangular 
body–funky, huh?
I gaze out over
Madison Square Park,
and bustling city
streets.  Use to
landlord a myriad
of businesses–music
publishers, dentists,
milliners.  Ya gotta
admit, at 117, I still
turn heads.
