Creation/Destruction

Creation takes a lifetime
Filled with calloused hands and an endless pool of love
When the creator is done, there is nothing but pride

But the same goes for the destroyer
The one who undoes what the creator has done.
“Watch what took you a lifetime to build only took me a minute to destroy”
And see how their chest fills with pride at the notion.
