There is beauty in destruction
the weak spots exploited
ripped apart and discarded
crumbling dust swept away by the wind
and yet the core remains
the unpredictable arrangements,
dents scrapes and stains,
damaged by collisions
corroded with chemicals
and yet, still standing.
Showing the history on the face
all those protective layers
built up to prolong the inevitable
cracked and peeling off
exposing naked surfaces
and yet not worse for wear
so many layers
so many stories
and I love every little bit of it.
