The Flow of Life
A single grain of sand in an infinite universe of atoms
 The tide breaks in and pushes around the particles
 After a long confusion of floating and sinking and swirls
 The sands are rearranged, and the foot prints are gone
 The crests reseed back into their world of bumps
 Settling into its knew life, the sand is lost
 Every other grain is just like each other
 The monsters come back and molest the sand one again
 They are left in chagrin at the mess that was made
 And the cycle starts over, but the sand just takes it
 Monotony is the life of sand, with ebbing and flowing
 The current muddles and mars the peaceful world
 And invades it everyday with malice and contempt
 The sands fall into the rut of life
 And survival becomes rife with pounding waves
 And everything seems to be a drudgery
