A Gaudy Building

The ancient built their buildings
And we awe at the magnificence
We build this senate building
And wonder?
Is it a mall or a condominium?
They say it is built with certain tiles
Tiles of exquisite luxury
The ancients have their tiles
With a fraction of the cost
Yet theirs is a marvel of art
Compared to the overpriced bathroom tile
These imbecilic macaques will walk upon.
Though both overpriced in their budgets
What the ancients built can inspire
What these fools built
Look like an upside down stool
When Seen from the sky.
