A TOWER CRUMBLING

I will try to
Explain
Through metaphors
That building towers
Without
Solid foundations
And
A plan
While trying to find the
Purpose
Will take you far and
Away
Maybe you’ll get to see
Stars and
Swim the diamond pool but
Eventually
The wind will rise
From the east and
Your tower will
Crumble – along with
Your Dreams
