reconstructing until kingdom come
out of thin air paper castles
tower above cumulus clouds
constructed by men skilled at
shaping dreams into
concrete ideas
I remained at ground zero
unfolding plans on a tabletop
saying look see here
this is where we must rebuild
and so we burned everything
on the spot
a virtual bonfire slowly growing
visible by satellite
smoke in the sky billowing
shaped like an ark
carrying away pairs of anything
that ever was or will be
march two thousand eighteen
