Elegy for the fountain, where it was

I remember when I was a freshman and I saw the Bouncing Souls along with Little Steven play nearby the fountain, actually I think they played under the arch, which is staying where it is. It would be too much work to move the whole arch. Wouldn’t that be crazy if they moved the arch instead of the fountain? It would make no sense. Someone told me once that a homeless dude had told them that the fountain served as a bathroom, for shitting mainly but also I guess for washing, for much of downtown’s homeless population, and wasn’t it stupid how all these kids and tourists would frolic in the fountain. I never really wanted to frolic in the fountain anyway. It’s a little gay, like the sound of music or something, unless you are a kid. I wonder will homeless people shit in the new fountain or will they find another old fountain. There are actually quite a few fountains around, more than you might think.
