Entrance is broken; it doesn't last long (10)
I believe the answer is:
transience
'it doesn't last long' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'entrance is broken' is the wordplay.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'entrance'+'is'='entranceis'
'entranceis' with letters rearranged gives 'TRANSIENCE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for transience that I've seen before include "Ephemerality" , "Impermanence" .)
