Waters rise

 The waters rise, they threaten to consume me.

Where are you? Is it more we have forgotten you?

Is this what it is like not to remember you, the law?

The rising torrent is overwhelming, fast flowing.

Do we only think of ourselves? Do we watch out

For others who are drowning and help, or watch.

Watch them go down and claim it their own fault.

It is shameful to die of a lie, it is more so not to see.
