How to build a monument.

The hardest part comes first

because 

before you choose stone or rock

before you choose large or small

single figure or multiple objects

intertwined in suspended animation

you must decide who deserves it,  this

thing:  the monument,  the statute  the edifice,

the subject of your labor

the important decision is who

or, if it is a group of people 

Whomever, qualifies 

Granite,  steel or marble 

shaved or fractured 

they are just the tablet you write on

Choose wisely
