The language of rivers

The languages of rivers

may on that day become

one, together fused

into one, one speech,

one thought, one belief,

one heart, that day

the streams flowed

into a torrent, a force

swirling, raging, a wave

covering all of it, all

of what was before,

becoming what is now,

what will be.
