I Was Rolling Down The Road In Some Cold Blue Steel

A silhouette of a blooming cherry tree before the silhouette of a large obelisk.
Looking up, a flag pole seems to parallel the Washington Monument so that an American flag flies above it.
Four metallic eagles, wings spread, support a wreath by a ribbon in their beaks, beneath a stone, triumphal arch.
A stone walkway descends parallel to a black mirrored wall with red and white flowers and small flags leant against it.
The sun is reflected in a black wall engraved with names.
The moon rises over bare trees, at a height similar to the obelisk, sunset-bathed, before a white, domed building.
A hill, ringed with flags, with an enormous stone obelisk sits before a broad, white, domed building with a bronze statue atop it.
Ridged marble columns on the left, a flat marble wall on the right, and a polished marble floor, frame a distant obelisk and white dome.
