Sink or swim
Sually; summoned snakes shake
The seen shark under the sea
Same wet that dry the floods to cover the droughts.

panic sets off - old man says

Masking our faces
Red flood taken Jenggot

I wish I could cry.
Let my feelings out and be gone.
I'm drowning in my silence.

The 1st Flood

Eve gets the curse
leaves quite a trail
doesn't know what to do
so fills up a pail

The flowing won't stop
Noah freaks, ''A Flood!''
Adam says, ''Relax,
She's almost out of blood''

O ut of nowhere, suddenly it comes
O ver the town, so swift it runs.....
D rowning everything in its way.

Go Flood Yourself

You may distort my audio,
twisting words with your prism.
But, the chasm
of your failed schism,
will be drowned in the flood
of truth's written flow.

Dry Oasis

A flood, my loyal eyes disobeyed me
Tears like fractured glass betrayed me,
Stabbed my face, into a dry oasis,
My body, overthrown by the love of you,
Yet my soul, still untouched by your rain…

Premium Member A historic flood

A
historic flood
forgotten except in
tucked away 
newspapers
which a reader
runs across and
due to an assumed
overlay of time
apparently
avoids the freedom
arising as what
is happening~~

Premium Member Every Valley Will Flood

too much rain for the rivers to contain
streams spill out and bridges fail
every valley will flood

every swollen creek runs
swiftly into yards and fields
and city streets ripping away conceit

Enviro Noah

Noah strove for enviro-protection. Plants and beasts he saved section by section. And now thanks to our brain all that soon will remain is a zoo and an herbal collection.
