you are the river. you're not the dirt that washes through it. you're not the animal that drinks from the shore. you're not the leaves that float in the current. you're not the heat that dries the bed. you're not the pollution that floods the stream. you're not the frost that freezes the waves. you're not the rain that floods the banks. you're not what passes through you, harms you, oppresses you. you are the river.

the river
you are the river. you're not the dirt that washes through it. you're not the animal that drinks from the shore. you're not the leaves that float in the current. you're not the heat that dries the bed. you're not the pollution that floods the stream. you're not the frost that freezes the waves. you're not the rain that floods the banks. you're not what passes through you, harms you, oppresses you. you are the river.
