Crawling
Through the Dirt



Crawling Through the Dirt
One of life’s simple pleasures

John Mariani

I cover my hands with sand;
clean sand, dirt-brown sand,
cigarette and bottle-strewn sand,
different textures, colors and compositions of sand.

The sensation never ceases to excite me.
No matter how often I burrow my body
into the sand, allowing the ocean
with it’s undulating motion
to wash it off my limbs,
I still get excited.

It’s curious and very sensual;
in fact, it’s one of a number of unique activites in life,
which always provides pleasure.

It’s so simple and accessible
yet, so subtle and discreet;
it provides satisfying, interesting
and entertaining moments -
for myself and fellow sand-worshipping
enthusiasts.
