Wall Street Bulloetica : Whole Fascinating Bull History Just In A Poem

Wall Street Bulloetica is a poetry book that illuminates the history of the famous Wall Street Bull statue, located in the financial district of New York City.The statue, a creation of sculptor Arturo Di Modica, was initially erected one night in secrecy in 1989. The speaker explains that at first, the city officials forced its removal. With the help of prestigious businessmen and high officials, a new home was found for the bull, and the statue was restored. Although on a temporary permit, the people of New York could not bear its removal and so it has remained, although not without controversy. From its mysterious initial placement, the efforts to get it restored in a new location, and most recently the objection to the placement of the "Fearless Girl" statue in front of the bull, Di Modica has consistently fought for his statue. Two protest movements have used it as their symbol, one of which being the "Occupy Wall Street" movement. According to the speaker, the statue has also become famous in the United States and abroad, making it a popular sight for tourists. In addition to this worldwide attention, Americans also share affection for the statue, rubbing it for good luck, taking pictures, or just gazing at it in awe. The Wall Street Bull has become a fixed symbol of resiliency and revival after financial difficulties, reminding all that there is hope.
