Flowing,
ebbing,
steadfast.
Carrying us to
freedom;
freedom for Jim and
freedom for me.
Freedom from law,
society,
"civilized" people.
Freedom to love and
be loved,
freedom to own yourself.
Always rushing from
place to
place,
this river rushed us
to the good land.
The land of
freedom.
Statement of Purpose:
Several parts of this poem were choppy-- the opposite of this river-- and I spent quite a bit of time fixing those parts.
