River That Doesn't Deliver

The flow of thought is more like a tidal wave than a prone river, and is the result of a celestial influence, not of any declivity in its channel. - Thoreau

a dirty river runs by here

right through me

there's an old, broken, glass table and mattress box spring in it

don't get me started on what's in the water

even deformed fish need fodder

Author's Note

“Why should we live with such hurry and waste of life? We are determined to be starved before we are hungry. Men say that a stitch in time saves nine, and so they take a thousand stitches today to save nine tomorrow.” - Thoreau
