Restrictions: None
Another Shot
The sledgehammer comes down hard
Whack
Chunks of brick ricochet
Sharp pieces pierce my flesh.
Embedding themselves deep into muscle,
Scraping bone.


Ignoring the pain, I continue
Whack
Clouds of dust invade my nostrils
Settling in the depths of my lungs
Smothering my breath.


Sometimes, destruction is necessary
Stumbling on the rubble
Balancing my footing on unstable debris
I wonder

Can I rebuild?
