The World Is a Stream
The world is a stream
with many new currents
some flow underground
others evaporate and fly
Human streams come
then disappear at will
bodies under the ground
souls perch on the winds
The source of streams
located in living wombs
has never been blocked
and life torrents flow on
Wild animals, plants, insects
stream from holes of life
bodies flow underground
souls to mystery locations
We need engineer so wise
the one who can build dams
to generate hydroelectricity
from the powerful torrents
Torrents of men, at war
children, women as victims
biological life so scorched
hydroelectricity they give
Savanna and sandy lands
Streams flow, no sage sees
