Reconstruction Zone

Building from the ground uP
is beautiful.
Neat.
Clean.
Polished.
Precise.

But

Remodeling from the inside OUT
is messy.
Ripping.
Rending.
Gashes.
Holes.

Cover it over with
shiny granite,
sparkling porcelain,
brushed nickel,
stainless steel.

Impregnable, in its newness.
No one will ever
see what’s under
the remodeling.

Thank God
only Me and Thee
have seen it.
We know the condition
under the addition.

Hard years won.
Make-over done.
Make-under
still in progress.

Painful

but

Grateful

About wlebolt

Life comes at you fast. I like to catch it and toss it back. Or toss it up to see where it lands. I do my best thinking when I'm moving. And my best writing when I am tapping my foot to a beat no one else hears. Kinesthetic to the core.
