A Thought on Sand

*Aug. 27, 2003.

Here's a thought for you
 while you're at the beach . . .

playing in the sand,
building with it,
being buried in it,
letting it swiftly run through your outstretched toes,
getting it stuck in those hidden places,

Sand is the finely ground up shells
     of dead things.

Kinda like anyone working a public phone job has undoubtedly spoken with someone in the Mob, etc. etc. Amazing what unconsciousness can get us into. Vicky
