Derelict Gym Gymnasium with Autumn Leaves in among toppled columns and nettles in North Carolina

Derelict Gym Gymnasium with Autumn Leaves

by Donna Kelly

Honeyed evening light spills across a collapsed gymnasium roof, framing the skeletal remains of a once-bustling athletic hall. Thick banks of crimson and gold leaves accumulate in the shadowed corners where the floor meets the crumbling concrete. Tall nettles push through fissures in the stone, reaching toward the open sky where toppled columns lie scattered like fallen giants. The air hangs heavy and still, visible as a soft haze between the debris. A lone basketball hoop stands rusted against the dark silhouette of the rear wall, its chain swaying slightly in the trapped dampness. at the edge is a cluster of dried oak leaves resting on a jagged piece of broken concrete near the foreground.
