crossing the river

before the rivers rises,
get across.

go now while
it's shallow, where it's only
up to your knees.

a storm
will make it impossible to
get over

to the other side.

the walls will overflow.
the levees will break.

so go now. this drought
is a good

thing, we can leave all that
we need to leave
behind

and begin again.
