Foundation of Sand, House of Glass

I sit in my chair,
Looking out at the clear blue sky,
Looking out at the oasis before me.
I am safe in these walls.

Not a brick to hinder my view,
Staring out at the calm,
The sand between my toes.

As night falls, the stars come to view.
Unobstructed by tiles, concrete, cloud, nor wood.
The sky is reflected,
The light passes through.
The ground, cold, shimmers.
I am surrounded by stars.

Daybreak.
The sun does not rise,
Sunset, tainted with grey,
As if vandalizing the sky.
Earth and wind dance to the beat of the thundering clouds.

And here I sit, staring at the coming storm.
Locked within the walls which do not hinder my sight.
Stuck within the ground, which shimmers at night.
