I'm not entering a photograph or poem, but a 3D cut-paper model:

WIZARDS' TOWER

The apostrophe is in the right place, since there are multiple wizards!  Lots of them.  (And servants and apprentices and scholars and monsters and guards and ghosts and summoned thingies.)

Please forgive the multiple photos, and the lack of quality.  I do not have a lipstick camera like Peter Jackson's by which to get inside the model.  There are oodles of towers, detailed inside and out.  On the inside, if you could peek through the 1/4" windows, you'd see that every room on every level is full of stuff: shelves, tables, cauldrons,whether exploding alchemical apparatus or quiet libraries, from the dungeons underneath to creatures under the eaves.  There are wheels and pull tabs so you can change some of the effects.  A few buildings have openable walls or lift-off roofs, but most need to be peeked into to even glimpse a few of their secrets.

So... lets start with the dragon's den inside a stalactite-filled cavern under the mountain....
