Cold but clean
Its wet chill
Cannot avoid
The harshness
Filth spilling in.
It could be avoided
Not by the water
That has to receive it
But by us
All of us
The city and the citizens
All of us
Business, the country
The collective world

Great take on the prompt. And so well worded. Best of luck in the contest.

It does fit the prompt both in its words and in its chilling fluidity. Well done.

Hi,
Thanks for the entry. I see you took the picture literally. This actually was not meant to be a contest about pollution.
M -
a good piece to accompany the picture, aye we could all make things cleaner if we put our minds to it and worked it out.
