Humpty Dumpty

Humpty fell too many times. Initially, it was easy to put the shell together again. A little glue, a little wariness. But with every fall, Humpty became uglier and harder to put together. Inside and out. More broken. Harder to fix. Things went missing.

Not long after the outside became a mess of glue and veneer, the more important part - the interior - became unrecognisable. Wrong. Irreparable.

The falls are less meaningful now. Because slowly some pieces have gone missing. Every incident lately has taken something away. Humpty can't ever be fully put together again.

It is not good, nor bad.

Just inevitable.

And maybe, a little sad.
