SANDS

–

After the long erosions,

After the world ground down,

Next is the new foundation,

Next as the cycle turns round.

–

With all our careful collections and classifications, with the constant reduction by our sensations,

The flux is parsed and steadily delineated – a hopeful stab at the structures of existence, at the obscure mania and secret urges of the creator.

–

After the long erosions,

After the world ground down,

Next is the new foundation,

Next as the cycle turns round.

–

Life amidst eternal reconstruction – in the sand and seashore, in desert mud and deepest seabed.

Substrate is nourished by vestigial remains. It pools. It swirls. It flowers into its next iteration.

–

After the long erosions,

After the world ground down,

Next is the new foundation,

Next as the cycle turns round.
