Reconstruction Zone

Building from the ground uP
is beautiful.
Neat.
Clean.
Polished.
Precise.

But

Remodeling from the inside OUT
is messy.
Ripping.
Rending.
Gashes.
Holes.

Cover it over with
shiny granite,
sparkling porcelain,
brushed nickel,
stainless steel.

Impregnable, in its newness.
No one will ever
see what’s under
the remodeling.

Thank God
only Me and Thee
have seen it.
We know the condition
under the addition.

Hard years won.
Make-over done.
Make-under
still in progress.

Painful

but

Grateful
