The
house of cards
is falling
on those
who played
and those
who stayed
to watch
and though
I am affected
there is this calm
I am tempted
to examine
until
it falls apart.
I
have been deluded
and
will be again
but because
a moment’s calm
is
not too much
to leave alone
until it disappears
on it’s own
I will pass
on the temptation
to deconstruct.
