Delicate/Annihilate

A delicate thing it is
              to annihilate
sometimes.
              Sometimes
it is in the cracks of the
beautiful (delicate) things that we most
can destroy, or do.

Annihilate is a word most delicate,
really,
with cloudy, soft sounds, pushing gently through the mouth,
a whisper.

Delicate is more firm, has structure.
Delicate, like meringue.

How delicate we are when we annihilate sometimes:
How delicate the thought, how soft the annihilation.
How delicate the intrusion, how soft the annihilation.
How delicate the destruction, how soft the annihilation.
