The call of Debris
Don’t sympathize with me,
It will just agonize me.
The ones who patronize me,
Are the ones who recognize me!
I was home to many gallant warriors,
Now, I’m relief to many rapscallions.
I am the destination of many sightseers,
I am the graveyard of some finest stallions.
I am nothing, just a spread of rubble.
A reminiscence of death and destruction,
Consequence of foolish men’s action,
Advising you of reconstruction.
