Who's In Charge?

Each grain of sand upon the beach joins the collective voice
Coaxing feet from the prison of their domesticity
Instantly a symbiotic exchange occurs – as flesh meets earth
No retail sale can compare with one hundred percent off

Bare foot in the sand – a northern beach in March
The tyrant reason – decries for all to hear the violation
The soul moans in delight – being fed to capacity
When presented the menu – who then should choose?

 Those trees that remain stand amidst the matrix of suburban domiciles
 Historian and harbinger both
Their lives spared by the whims of esthetics
Progress sanctioned genocide – did anyone stop to ask the destination?

A life long search for harmony – is at once resolved
Though the orchestra – is led much closer to home
I will forever after look upon the observation I’m being “unreasonable”
As both a blessing and the highest form of praise.
