Flood
The river overflows its banks and carves a valley.
The valley wears away into mountains.
The mountains make rain.
The rain makes forests.
The forests make animals.
The animals make humans.
The humans make religion.
Religion makes death.
Death makes fear.
Fear makes hell.
Hell makes desire.
Desire makes hope.
Hope makes dreams.
Dreams make love.
Love makes life.
A river flowing toward the sea.
