Destruction

It is a famous cliche
that it takes a moment to destroy
what you spent a lifetime building.

Sometimes,
it takes more than a moment.
Sometimes it takes a premeditated decision,
a deliberate plan carried out with all the good intentions.

But when the "the-only-smart-thing-to-do" plan becomes reality,
it creates only a swallowing earth and
something wonderful lost,
perhaps forever.
