Some of the creations are impressive based on what they accomplish but others are masterpieces in themselves. Man’s capability to build such tall buildings, as the skyscrapers we are familiar with covering our cities today, is a major expression of the advancements we have made as a culture. The power necessary to build such tall structures inspired competition between architects to see who

A Practical Criticism on 'Here' by Phillip Larkin ‘Here’ was published in 1964 as part of a collection of poems collectively titled ‘The Whitsun Weddings’.
