They Went to Build Towers
"She Went to Pick Flowers" - Mara Levi

They went to build towers by the ocean one newpix, and now they’re walking away. They must have had questions the sea could not answer to tell their sand castles “bye” Spoiler: They had thought that the sea could command what it did, and it wanted to flow to the shore. So you waited ashore. You said, “Soon it will come, it will wash the whole castle away, and then all the ocean and towers will go, just to loop.” They had whispered of dix when the tides were more shallow, And they mourned the fresh rain on the sea. You smiled, amused, by their simplistic words And surmised of new moons, blue lagoons. You said, “Cuegan, this world is made up so when the Moon pulls on seas, any seas, there are things called tides. Pull yourself up on a bucket? It's so clueless. Megan! You’re daft as Cue!” And one dix they woke by the shore and their castles, observed a whole tower was gone. They tasted sea but they thirsted for answers and said, “Well, it’s time we moved on.” And you waited and waited watched the scene fade and said, “Tell me this end isn’t true!” And you willed them both back to the castles again but Time’s river had flowed somewhere new. They went to build towers by the ocean one newpix, and now they’re walking away. They left all their castles and walked for a mip to discover the source of the sea. They veered from the water to climb for mip saying “I always wanted to know things. No, I never wanted to keep that sea view; who’d have dreamt of a land of such molpies and beesnakes and wowtrees and waterfalls too If we'd sat and waited like you?" Now who's to say who has a clue?
