Click herethe temporal nature of sand
castles built in a season drifting warm
moats and turrents
first gloried by the sea
then banished by the tides
our skin red from biting
kisses of the sun
melding sand and foam
in endless rivulets of coming and going
bigger and better we build
and expose our faith in impossible
defying the rules of impermanence
eyes closed to the inevitable
memories implanted in the cool shadows
of what could be
waxing brighter as sight grows dim
the lilting lapping of swelling
sea to sand sucking
at our ankles pulling
at us to surrender
to the flow of eventuality
and experiential onslaughts
smearing boundaries of convention
convenience and conscience
come with me now
down to the water's edge
and brave the open sea
And whatever you do, don't build your house on a foundation of sand, down on the beach.
