IN THE WALLS
THEY LABORED !
THEY CHORED!
IN THE WALLS:
IN THE WALLS!
THEY USED ROUGH TIMBER
WITH POLES TO EACH END
SANDBAGS AND ADOBE
IN THE WALLS!
IN THE WALLS!
ARCHED EDGES FOR
WINDOWS AND DOORS
IN THE WALLS
WITH ADOBE THEY CHORED
IN THE WALLS!
IN THE WALLS!
THEY COVERED THE OUTSIDE
AWAY FROM THE ELEMENTS
LAYED CEMENT AND STONE
THE BEAUTY OF THE SPECIMENT
THEY CHORED AND LABORED
BAGS AND CEMENT AND STONE!
