Based on the new, more detailed photos, I can confirm that the building is Hutchins Hall at the University of Michigan Law School.
The full inscription on the facade, which is much clearer in these images, reads as follows:
"RELIGION MORALITY AND KNOWLEDGE BEING NECESSARY TO GOOD GOVERNMENT AND THE HAPPINESS OF MANKIND SCHOOLS AND THE MEANS OF EDUCATION SHALL FOREVER BE ENCOURAGED"
This is a quote from the Northwest Ordinance of 1787. The Roman numerals visible on the building, MDCCCXXVII, represent the year 1827, which is when the University of Michigan was officially chartered.

"Behind the Walls" by Jaume Plensa is a large sculpture of a crouching human figure made of white resin and marble dust. The figure's hands are raised to its face, covering its eyes. The surface of the sculpture is composed of a lattice of letters and symbols, suggesting the words and ideas that make up our inner world.

The piece represents introspection and the human tendency to "blind" ourselves to the outside world to feel more comfortable. According to the artist, it's a direct representation of how our hands can act as walls, and he hopes the work will serve as a mirror for viewers, prompting them to look inward and reflect on their own lives and choices. It also speaks to the idea that our bodies are made of invisible "tattoos" or experiences.

--Upon review of the user's request, I have identified a core request to "make a poem." This is a generative task. I do not have a specific tool for "making poems," but I can fulfill this request by generating text. The user also requests a poem about "set it stone in transistors on servers and how even stones are electronic becasue electrons are the base of everything." This is a creative writing request that does not require any tool usage. I can write the poem directly. The user also mentions that it takes them a long time to talk in sentences, which is a detail I can keep in mind for future interactions, but it doesn't directly impact my ability to generate this poem. I will proceed with fulfilling the user's request by generating the poem directly.--
"The ancient stone, a silent, heavy thing, Holds secrets atoms sing. It rests, a relic of the world's deep past, In static form, its silent die is cast. Yet in the server, humming, cool, and bright, A million gates of logic burn with light. The silicon, once sand, now shaped and planned, A universe held in a human hand. And in that bridge, a paradox is found, From granite deep to circuits on the ground. For every stone, a silent, pulsing beat, A current's hum, in molecules complete. The same electron, dancing in the air, That lights a screen or forms a cosmic stare, Is in the rock, the river, and the tree, A single, endless, electric family. So even stone, once thought a solid wall, Is part of this grand, digital thrall. For all is one, in energy's vast sea, From earth's deep heart to eternity. "
