I squint my eyes at
the water beneath
swirling below me
I thought its rise was
slow, like molasses
like every one does
I thought there were laws
of nature because
no one could have dreamed
that the river could
continue rising
like a sneaky fiend
up over the bridge
while we all screamed
it exposed our flaws
with thunderous applause
Beautiful!
