and (below) a little poem about this site:

This is my Watts Towers: weekend work
homemade, handhewn, hacked up
parts picked up here and there;
unsponsored, unendowed, even uninvited,
probably violating zoning laws,
yet now part of the landscape,
as those termite towers in Africa
are, bearing witness to an urge
inarticulate to build:

my heroes are Soleri and Veblen
and that mad Simon Rodia of Watts.
