Sand from Memory
By Dr Benway
It used to make more sense then this
a picture, an image of something close
like some glamorous yet jaded proxy
condensed into lustful intent.
Sometimes I forget that it's all just a game
one that's never meant to be personal
nobody really gets hurt, right?
A smile, a kiss, a touch
and if your lucky,
one long meaningless screw
maybe even a walk on the beach,
if time allows.
