we follow the river
to a safer place
where the sun shines
and warmth hits my face
we follow the river
to a peaceful world
where the birds sing
and the animals play in the spring
we follow the river
away from our homes
away from devices and our phones
we follow the river
not of water, it is made
but of the blood we have spilled
follow the red river
to our paradise
follow the ****** river
away from the non-believers
follow the floating body parts
to the other lands
follow your guts
as i cut them out
and throw then in
the river of pretend
