I Am Water

Feel the mountains behind me

Holding me strong.

I am one with these forests,

As they stretch along the lakes.

Solidarity forged of rock and clear water.

I stand here, wading in cool waters.

Let this smoke fill my lungs.

Billowing into the lights of humanity.

I am not one with them.

Their steel and asphalt greed stretched in lights along the waters edge;

Until the day they all slide into the murky waters they have created.

I stand with the mountains.

I stand with the forests.
