His Paper Mansion Poem by Danielle Mari Nidea

His Paper Mansion



It was more important than life
And he had worked so hard for it
Yet it was not work
For action without thinking
Is not work at all.
But for a moment was triumphant,
That dream just inches away.
Suddenly comes a dark day
Which could have been avoided anyway
Yet pride took him over
And in a split of time -
A time of hypnotizing colors -
They were reduced to ashes.
