Buildings Are Fine
Because It is December 6 Today
Your buildings are fine
The structures you dream of
The pillars you erect
The monuments you demolish
The rubble, the concrete, the bare
Memories of places and times
Baked in bricks
Churned in concrete
Reinforced in steel
Reduced into dust
And ashes
And perhaps a tear
Your buildings are fine
The magnificence transient
The glory a lie
The legacy a trap
And the pain that lingers
And lingers
And lingers on
Your buildings are fine
But the people
It’s the people
Who are not okay
Not anymore
Not in a long time
