Cemento Mori
Grotesques and Gargoyles.
I've always dug the fact that for the most part gargoyles aren't really for people to enjoy. They're really high up (and sometimes barely visible), and when they're in their glory, acting as a gutter and spitting out streams of water, no one is really seeing them in action, beings it's raining.
More here.

From Hell To Earth
Hangman's hands laid in this tomb an
Imp of Satan's getting, whom an
Ancient legend says that woman
Never bore--he owed his birth
To Sin herself. From Hell to Earth
She brought the brat in secret state
And laid him at the Golden gate,
And they named him Henry Vrooman.
While with mortals here he stayed,
His father frequently he played.
Raised his birth-place and in other
Playful ways begot his mother.
Ambrose Bierce
