The Decline of America in the 21st Century



The Emergence of the Decline of Civility and Intelligence in America in the 21 Century  as Recorded by the Camera

"The Decline of America in the 21 Century" 
This is the title I have given to a series of pictures that I have either taken myself, will take  or they were so good that I copied them. The present picture(copied)  is the front door of P. Ballantine & Sons, Newark New Jersey, a once great brewery and sponsor of the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Athletics in the 20 Century. Now just mold in the cracks of life.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
