Of course I say YES to you, beloved,
refreshing river-liciousness!

The question is… will you say yes to me?

Will you honor your promises
of cleansing…
of travel…
of baptism…

of a rich, supportive ecosystem
that SUSTAINS with nutrition
and buoyancy.

Or will I drown choking on my own hopes?

Better a wet, soggy fool who tried;
than a dry coward
who blistered on the shore.

Leap. Plunge. Laugh.

Because it’s all hilarity.
