"Build up that tower upon sand."
Build up that tower upon sand.
Watch in grow and catch the eye of the clouds.
Take a look back and hide in the cool sheltering shade created by is boundless majestical reach.
Respect and admire it's endurance as it clothes itself in lush vegetation and sleeps dormant through the ages.
Wonder at the countless others who have disturbed it's slumber and angered that great tower.
Protect it and care for it as its grandeur depletes.
But don’t come back in ten thousand years.
The sand will last longer.
