Your castles of sand
will slip into the sea, eventually.
no matter how clean
you draw the geometry.
Your castles of sand
don’t care about your plans, G.
the tide don’t debate,
it just erases your strateGy.

Your castles of sand
look solid from where you stand,
till the ocean clocks in
and reminds you it’s sand.
Your castles of sand
ain’t built to last, see,
time is the tide
and it collects its fee.
Your castles of sand
get bold in the sun,
till the water shows up
and turns “done” into “undone.”
Your castles of sand
stand grand in your hand
till the tide clocks in
like it owns the land.

Built bold in the sun,
you called it “done,”
named it legacy, king,
said you already won.
But the ocean don’t care
about titles you claim,
it don’t read your posts,
it don’t play your game.
It don’t like, don’t share,
don’t follow your plan,
it just pulls up silent
and reminds you it’s sand.
No…
