Jim: A Capitol Idea

Each decade, for one long night, bronze eyelids blink and reveal a spark of life in shaded metal eyes. Fingers stretch as her hands release their grip on the sheathed sword and shining bronze shield.

Fourteen times she has awakened and marveled at the glowing lights of the bustling city below her. All around, buildings and monuments vie with each other in their majesty and glory.
