Little pig, little pig, let me in...


Grumbling
as I continue my masonry work
tear it down
put it back up
kick it over with glee
hang my head as I patch it

I pause...

Sitting cross-legged
in cement powder
and brick shards
hand tools scattered
keeping their distance from me
I fight reconstructing it around us
brick in hand
I fight reconstructing it around me

instead,

i scream.
