Water, Water Everywhere

What is love if not welcoming you in from the heat with a cool glass of water?

The seas bubble with the collateral damage of the vainglorious
who rush to play in the water
while the Dine thirst in an empty basin.
The red man has to beg to access the waters that feed the red river,
but the Titans relish in allowing only brackish waters.

When the People of Earth meet Titans (Titans who feel that they are something more than superfluous self-important men),
The People have to explain basic principles.
Have to explain that water is a necessity.
Have to explain that promises are supposed to be kept.
Have to explain that if the Titans were less wasteful,
the Earth would provide everything that man needs.

But Titans have never been good with humility
They know nothing of harmony
And always fight for supremacy of everything
from the cosmos to the Dine’s right to come home to a cool glass of drinkable water.
