River and Valley
The mistresses - opposing forces
collide in a frenzy
of passion
one lithe, ever-changing
one a carved, set stone
The river seeps her way
into the valley's stone heart
softening her, eroding her
changing her with miraculous
beauty
her tongue caresses the crevices
of the valley
molding her with lustful resolve
the valley shudders
as smooth fingers
discover her hills
expose her nooks and crannies
in a moist display of affection
the river collects
small pieces of the valley
bringing them with her
to remember their fateful encounter
She must move on
The river flows
a smirk on her mouth
spewing words
meaningless words, loving words
The valley sighs
a beautiful depression
she has changed
and will bear
the river's passion forever
