There is a different movement that escapes
from a river in November—
water is neither quicker nor slower
than June,
and neighborhood boys still find
their way down sand hills
to its banks, untangling their tethers
from clouds.
They will run & pant, they will toss
themselves to the ground,
but in the coming coldness
of November, they pause
and hope it shouts their names
one last time before winter.
November River

If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Thanks. Appreciate the words here. Old Man River speaks a different language to each age group, methinks.

I'm not an outlier. I just haven't found my distribution yet.

Listening to Ray Charles
I imagine you drifting
a river’s bend.
Hanging time, I tap
my foot on my cedar deck.
I imagine you playing piano,
a blind river humming along.
