Poem

The river runs cold, clean, and clear,                     
Down to the sea, following its path                       
For all Eternity - aye, Water goes on                      
As it always has, indifferent to the living.                  
We concern it not. But still it is                       
The Water of Life, for ocean, primeval, pristine,                
Our common birthplace, nourishes us still.                   
                                                                               
And Water's deep calm reason calls, seduces                   
To submerge ourselves wholly in its pure abstract beauty,            
Oblivious, as Water, to all else.                        
                                                                              
But beware - though 'tis indeed a useful tool                  
Remember now that reason is indifferent                     
And Water makes tears, too.                           
                                                                               
While we are mortal, we cannot walk on Water;                  
We drown. And Water, caring not                         
What we may try, continues, ceaseless,                     
Doing Tome's work                                
Water flows pure                                
And flows on.
