  4. Two
    tough old fogeys;

    The stonehearted,
    well established
    relentless,
    conservative
    pillar
    of corporate life;

    And the
    green,
    networking,
    Gulmohur of the ages
    remembering
    the old brickless days,
    and still
    quietly endeavouring
    to spread
    her branches wide,
    sometimes preening
    amidst the orange blooms.

    And
    that double helix
    of a staircase,
    twirls upward in delight,
    around the
    stout central pillar,
    wondering
    which side
    of the family
    it got its DNA from....
