River

River flowing by
a ribbon running, returning to the sea
not a slow, meandering
not a soft reflection of the sky
not a gentle touch to the shore
not an invitation to step in.

River flowing by
a fast whip of whirls and twirls
that pull and push its shore
that spins its current
that slaps the edges containing it
that: a warning to step away.

River flowing by
its anger surging from a strength upstream
pushed by a plethora of forces
struggling as drama in motion
like the undercurrent of hidden truths
uncovering white lies.
