The waves are like dominos and metronomes. Your fear plays the tide, and I, the sand. Tortured simultaneously by blundering blows. Torn and composed from hard to crisp to soft. Laying there. Taking it. You glide across, pulling back with your constant motion. Knowing you could drown me, Collapse my core, Enthrone my solidity and override it. Still, You draw back. Over again, and I know you can cover me. Weaken me. Shatter my grain. But we are one. We are what everyone knows us as. We coincide, collide, Divide. The foolish sand and her molder.

The waves are like dominos and metronomes. Your fear plays the tide, and I, the sand. Tortured simultaneously by blundering blows. Torn and composed from hard to crisp to soft. Laying there. Taking it. You glide across, pulling back with your constant motion. Knowing you could drown me, Collapse my core, Enthrone my solidity and override it. Still, You draw back. Over again, and I know you can cover me. Weaken me. Shatter my grain. But we are one. We are what everyone knows us as. We coincide, collide, Divide. The foolish sand and her molder.
