Most of the times it stands there, glorious and scary. Imposing on you whatever it is that it was build to impose.
But sometimes it seems out of place. Like a construction made from LEGO pieces. A thing out of a movie set, that after the shooting will be demolished and its LEGO pieces will be soon be part of something else.
this thought is more comforting. Simply because its perfection and beauty does not, and never will, excuse the motivation for which it was build.
Not as a sacred prayer place, but as a symbol of power, to scare and impose.
