a painting of a person walking down a city street
a painting of a city street at night
a tree in nature
an animal made out of a piece of paper
a close up of a painting of a person
a group of birds sitting on top of a tree branch
a drawing of a woman with her eyes closed
a tree in nature
a man holding a knife next to another man
Zodiac signs as fighters
a black and white drawing of a man with his arms crossed
alien planet
a shirtless man holding a rope in the air
Red hat
Red hat
a group of people walking across a cross walk
a group of people walking across a cross walk
a group of people walking across a cross walk

a black and white photo of a man playing with a ball
And after thee shall arise another kinghdom inferior to thee

Now, those captains must learn what the river will do
when it makes that great turn out of sight.
How it dashes them up on the rocks of the shore
How it spins to the left and the right.
It beats them and breaks them and crushes their pride
Leaves them dizzy and sick and all jumbled inside
‘til they’ve all but forgotten that glorious ride
lying flat on their deck in the sun.
There they lie, drying out in the sun.

As you round the point where the river was bent
and survey the great wideness ahead,
you can see all those captains alone on their decks,
beat and broken and very near dead.
Then the current takes hold and there’s naught you can do
as it drags you down into its maw.
Headed straight for those rocks, you make ready to crash
but at last, you rise up, roll and yaw.

Going back and away, then forward again,
fearing each time, the rocks will prevail!
You’re trapped in a cycling, circling tide,
in an eddy withstanding a gale.
But each time you circle that great whirling tide
and you’ve not hit the rocks or been thrown to the side
and you’re kept from the falls, cascading and wide,
for the eddy’s small mercy give praise.
Give the merciful currents your praise!
