sometimes


.... you start with nothing and build from scratch
sometimes you have everything you need and it's still not enough
building yourself up
brick by brick
we stack things up
we try to go higher
how many blocks can we add
before it grows too tall
and starts to wobble
remember?
the pure joy...
of playing blocks, and stacking up
only to let them all tumble
and start again
dominoes
neatly lined.... and then
one small tap
and there they go
the miniscule moment of power
in your fingertip
you can make it
and you can destroy it
&
how you feel
once it's tumbled crumbled
ANGRY
SAD
EXCITED ...to start again?
in each moment
you can choose
you have a choice
the choice
is
yours
