184: What is this drawing together?/We are but mere droplets...

What is this drawing together?

We are but mere droplets

to the world

but to meld in union

two become a rivulet

rivulets grow to form a stream

then a river, and suddenly

we’re the AMAZON

cutting through impenetrable forest

unable to be stopped

and we grow and grow even more

and we empty out and then we’re the ocean

the life-giver and the life-cradle

and without this union

there would only be a world

not blue, but red

like mars

and dead.
