The olde bank by the mall and its colonial architecture provide a glimpse of class from the past. A structure suited as a fine establishment of Colonial Williamsburg. However, now it's out of place and out of time. At the stop light, this building veers into my peripheral and I catch a reminiscent thought:

I've made many deposits here, just not enough to keep it afloat. It has washed up on the shores of lake defunct, stripped of its stripes. Security deposit boxes emptied of everything but their cobwebs.
