At some point we will be forced to realize
Severe decrepitude has set in,
And nothing short of major renovation
Will enable this old barn to continue.
And then the choice arises:
Do we shore it up, take it down and replace,
Or let it slowly sink to the ground?
What opportunities arise, and what is lost
With each of our available options?
And what do the choices we make
Say about who we are?
