Inundation: Thoughts from Huxley and Mueller

It started as a trickle
this innovation

as we discovered application

of god-like intellect. 

So we built our Babel

and the rain came down

drop by drop

the hole we were digging

(The City we were building)

filled up with

the judgment of God

our own inventions,

and we couldn't get enough until,

covered by strange and familiar 

water falling from the sky

we were forced to scream

to be heard beneath the flood.

Constant Communication 

is essential to

(they tell us)

the creation of 

programs and initiatives for 

Thirst Slaking and Water Education. 

While all that was real

every cell of our skin

saturates

distends

and 

begins to 

fall apart.
