Kings of Sand
by Evan Greer

organic silver heart
gasping in the sunlight;
freezing in the sand.
Forgotten by the waves
and found by children
who,
ignorant that the
universe is round
had walked a straight line
hoping to get somewhere.

Following their footprints
through boulders obliterated
by the objectivity of Time,
Time--(who does not care enough to hate
the toys that it breaks.)
Children who will soon
come across (the spot) where
they {hopefully}
had read the sign and removed
their shoes
only to find that
they no longer fit.
