When rivers stood in their dreams
They forgot of days they acted as streams
And tasted filth, felt the sharp teeth of stones
And travelled miles in the lone
They, now in pride, bloat
As they on top of seas float
Blocking streams and rivers
Who in need of strength shiver in quivers
Forgetting tsunamis still have power
To on their happy fate tower
The future sure blinds
So we do need to mark our hinds
In this travel
Which in uncertainty wobble
