Earthquake

It’d only
take one
fleeting
moment
to ruin a
person’s
life, with
one bit of
bad luck,
and a poor
foundation.

What
was tall and
seemingly sturdy is
now an unsalvageable wreck.
One is homeless from a rent increase,
loss of a spouse, natural disaster, or a war.
A system based on profit collapses, makes us poor.
