Monsters in the city

Image
It was my favourite  little street, I used to walk with my dog........... It was like this before. Monster is still hungry, eating another building......... There was a nice restaurant bar before....now it is a deserted place. Rotunda restaurant still to be demolished The PWC building was bitten by the monster The car parking on Manchester St. still to be demolished too... On the corner of Armagh St. and New Regent St.  The corner in New Regent St. is missing. This is the corner of Armagh St.and Madras St. What an emptiness. Big snake on the street....... Clock tower slowly disappearing
