The river inside me flows,
exposes my wildness.
A thousand boats of passion
float downstream.

My mountain smiles,
shoots boulders at the river,
trying to warn you.
Careful, you do not know
what you are playing with.

Take a deep breath,
send your ego home.
Don’t take me as a challenge,
I may eat you whole.

Respect my space,
approach with love,
the only thing
to soothe the feathers
of a wild bird.
