Kneel at that river bend in supplication in silent meditation and hold fast to the quiet whisper that say Drink between heartbeats in a slow lazy way so that it curls around you but you look at the water and your hands are frozen it is not clean maybe there is another river or faster moving water you rise from the riverbed you are afraid of the water of the current you can swim but you do not know if you can stand at the riverbed the current is fast and unforgiving it moves around you through you it does not touch you the river moves forward rushing turning roiling it will drown you Kneel there is another river there is faster moving water but still Kneel Drink
