Rhine river
November 25, 2013
Always goes with the flow
But gets violent at the rapids.
Drama of the humans goes all around,
doesn't really care.
The neighboring river is brimming with toxins.
But I keep it clean.
The water will cascade
again and again
Dwarfed in comparison
To the majestic Nile,
trying to be just as great.
Kayakers beware.
Tread over me.
And i will send you straight into my dark waters.
