I'm very happy to have landed in the Gulch...
Here is a sample of my work:

TOWERS OF LIGHT

I feel that if a war came to threaten this, I would like to throw myself into space, over the city, and protect these buildings with my body.
--Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

The thousand dollar xenon lights all sat
There waiting for the orphaned twelve-year-old
Girl to begin the ceremony that
Her murdered parent lingers to behold.
The switch is thrown by Valerie--her right.
The phantom towers rise, the symbol of
Our love, the world's most brilliant shafts of light,
Like spirits, try to touch the stars above.
The worst attach in years on our land
Has murdered them all. We are their begotten
Children here at this ceremony and
Three thousand souls will never be forgotten,
The office workers, firemen, and police.
Three thousand souls will never rest in peace!

Thomas Newton
Conservative Poet
Author of the book, "The Conservative Rebellion," a sonnet sequence of 64 sonnets on the History of Technology.
I have completed the next book, "The Conservative Poet," but John Galt has paid me $70,000 not to publish it.
