A Little Breakage

I passed the damage yesterday, and thought
it might serve as a prompt for micro verse.
A stanza on the little chaos brought
gratuitously now. An urban curse,
a tantrum, small destruction no one sought
and, to be sure, a crime that might be worse.
I woke today to disappointments (three) –
that shatter’s now a metaphor to me.
