♪ GENESIS In the Rapids / It ♪
Moving down the water
John is drifting out of sight,
Its only at the turning point
That you find out how you fight.
In the cold, feel the cold
All around
And the rush of crashing water
Surrounds me with its sound.
Striking out to reach you
I can't get through to the other side,
When you're racing in the rapids
There's only one way, that's to ride.
Taken down, taken down
By the undertow
I'm spiraled down the river bed,
My fire is burning low.
Catching hold of a rock that's firm,
I'm waiting for John to be carried past.
We hold together, hold together and shoot the rapids fast.
And when the waters slow down
The dark and the deep
Have no-one, no-one, no-one, no-one
No-one left to keep.
Hang on John! We're out of this at last.
Somethings changed, that's not your face.
It's mine - it's mine!
" I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
By becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow... "

I set out one night
When the tide was low
There were signs in the sky
But I did not know
I'd be caught in the grip
Of an undertow
Ditched on a beach
Where the sea hates to go
With a child in my arms
And a chill in my soul
And my heart the shape
Of a begging bowl
Oh, I set out one night
But I did not know
I'd be caught in the grip
Of an undertow
Ditched on a beach
Where the sea hates to go
With a child in my arms
And a chill in my soul
And my heart the shape
Of a begging bowl

This is in Great Falls National Park, Virginia. The falls are spread out over miles. This is the Potomac River. I believe one of the trails and scenic overlooks is wheelchair accessible. I'm not positive on that though. There are three of them but they're all basically the same. They are right next to each other. The falls parallel the C&O Canal (Maryland side) which has a bike / jogging trail which is a couple hundred miles long with B&B's along the way for several day bike journeys. Kayaking is also allowed on certain parts of the river. Many get rescued and some drown each year. The undertow is deceiving. #NPS #GreatFallsNationalPark #waterfalls #Wasserfälle #cascades #nature #Natur #滝 #biking #Radfahren #Cyclisme
"Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby"- Langston Hughes ❤
We had a week of nothing but rain and cold and wind. I wish we could have sent some of this rain out west to stop the fires. The Great Lakes are at an all time high and the beaches are vanishing. One beach here closed when several people drowned in the strong undertow. I thought this photo of drenched Izzy the fox was appropriate, and yes, that is my bike in the background. :). Now the sun and sky are obscured with smoke all the way from the west coast.
Stay well my Flickr friends.
Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated

I am learning more as I'm dying
I'm more sensitive and more emotional
And as I look inside myself I'm finding
This is spiritual
Ashes slowly rising
From the undertow
Fight or flight, I'm lightning
I've been hiding that I'm sexual
So now you know
I've been hiding that I'm sexual
So now you know
I've been hiding that I'm sexual
As I awaken this curiosity
I embrace myself, every part of me
I have been hiding my body
To protect my soul
All these insecurities
I've been hiding that I'm sexual
So now you know
I've been hiding that I'm sexual
So now you know
I've been hiding that I'm sexual

Thanks to my partner Eli Medier for his poem:
"Like an orchid
in the liquid night
over the absolute rock
breeze and moon
queens of the distant undertow"

Coming from the cold
Buried under heat
Lay you on the floor
Heavy like the force between us
Cut me like a rose
Turn me like a beast
Hold me on the floor
Heavy like the force between us
I was a ghost
Halted in flight
Kneeling
There of the heart
God undertow

The black sand beaches of Kirkjufjara near Dyrhólaey are some of the most dangerous in Iceland with collapsing cliff rocks, strong sand-blasting winds, tall waves, and powerful undertows. It is often the most perilous places in the world though that offer incredible beauty, and here on this dangerous beach the waves crashing loud and hard against the craggy volcanic rocks were mesmerizing to me. I was careful to keep my distance from the water that our local guide warned had washed away and killed a tourist in the area just a few weeks back. The images I came away with were quite interesting and left me inspired for further Icelandic adventures.
Tayrona National Natural Park - This park is a protected area along Colombia's northern Caribbean shores. Along with it's beautiful blue water are mountainous hiking trails up to the ruins of Pueblito. The ruins were built by the Tayrona civilization.
These Caribbean waters are very turbulent in many places. On one of the days that I was there, a swimmer got pulled out by current undertows. It was touch and go for this guy for several hours. Everyone watched in horror as several rescue attempts were made. Eventually a jet ski pulled him out. Exhausted and freaked out he never got in the water again.
No motorized vehicles are allowed so you have to hike in with all of your camping gear or have supplies carried in by horses

I gotta keep the calm before the storm
I don't want less, I don't want more
Must bar the windows and the doors
To keep me safe, to keep me warm
Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for
Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore
And my voice becomes the driving force
I won't let this pull me overboard
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown
So pull me up from down below
'Cause I'm underneath the undertow
Come dry me off and hold me close
I need you now, I need you most
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown (Keep my head above water, above water)
And I can't see in the stormy weather
I can't seem to keep it all together
And I, I can't swim the ocean like this forever
And I can't breathe
God, keep my head above water
I lose my breath at the bottom
Come rescue me, I'll be waiting
I'm too young to fall asleep
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)
Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)
Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)
And keep my head above water, above water

Coming from the cold
Buried under heat
Lay you on the floor
Heavy like the force between us
Cut me like a rose
Turn me like a beast
Hold me on the floor
Heavy like the force between us
I was a ghost
Halted in flight
Kneeling
There of the heart
God undertow
Feeling
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
Coming from the cold
Buried under heat
Lay you on the floor
Heavy like the force between us
Cut me like a rose
Turn me like a beast
Hold you to the the floor
Heavy like the force between us
I was a ghost
Halted in flight
Bleeding
There of the heart
God undertow
Feeling
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
Coming from the cold
Buried under heat
Lay you on the floor
I was only falling in love
Cut me like a rose
Turn me like a beast
Hold you to the floor
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
I was only falling in love
And now I see in technicolor
A movie script lover
You chase me while I play the clown, oh
But then you know, oh
I tend to stack the deck with wild cards
You're betting all you got on a broken heart
I say don't, oh
But now you know, oh
So I curse my stars for a fair game
While you nurse my scars and the old flame
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for you (you, you)
I'm a f... you (you, you) I'm a f...
If I let you down like I tend to
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool
Now I see shades of roses
Your love, I suppose, is an ocean the ebb and the flow, oh
An undertow, oh
But I can feel the rogue inside my veins
A way to crash the castle we made of sand
Oh, I hope, oh
It doesn't show, oh
So I curse my stars for a fair game
While you nurse my scars and the old flame
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for you (you, you)
I'm a f... you (you, you) I'm a f...
If I let you down like I tend to
I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool
Old dog, new treat, a shorter leash
I cannot breathe, I lock the door
You flood the gate
Tick, tick, too late
But still, you know, I'm a fool for
You (you, you)
I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for
I'm a fool for
You
Best way to stay on top, is to listen to yourself. Love yourself and mostly be yourself.
Discovering yourself again is enlightening and amazing. Letting go is so freeing.

Soaring higher I almost caught a glimpse
Thought I was getting closer to putting all the pieces back in my head
Thought I was finding where the lines all intersect
Hold the faint pieces of my heart out to kiss the flames
So near the surface I so longed to touch
So near to a life forever free from my past
The fear that the undertow would come someday again
I knew that the next time would be my last
There is no light that can reach me in here anymore
Eternal is the seal drawn upon my hearts door
No words, no reason, upon my soul they feed
The flaw that sleeps between your wish and your dream
I fall
From the light
The feeling of the water rising once again overhead
I lost myself in the crowd, I can fake a smile
The voices taking over only lust for your destruction
Now see the last sunset is drowning in my dark
You never really loved me just the concept that consumed me
You were blinded by its light; I was penetrated by its horror
There is no where left for my wrath to hide
Agony at climax, but I know you want more
There is no light that can reach me in here anymore
Eternal is the seal drawn upon my hearts door
No words, no reason, upon my soul they feed
The flaw that sleeps between your wish and your dream
"Please take my hand
Building castles in the sand
Look through my past
To a house that's bulit from glass
I'm casting stones at the feet
A foundation incomplete
Please rescue me
Come rescue me
Come rescue me"

Doesn't look that rough does it? But the Red Rip Current warning flags were out up and down the beach. Thanks for the visit and have a good mid-week.
...is what I call waiting until the last moment to quickly pull your very non-weatherproof camera out of the way of an incoming wave, then trying not to get wiped out by the undertow!

Down and damp with the crashing waves.... relatively safe, with one eye out for a rogue wave... so beautiful and exciting... and then just a moment of light on the beach and a breaking wave...

Poses are my own
Swallowed by the undertow
No lock and there's no key
There's no bottom there's no letting go
Just time beneath our feet
Can't say I tried to resist
Caught up again and again
Am I mistaken
Losing sight and losing grip
Still together but alone
I know this hand
I know this face
I miss it when it's gone
Stay
You're hypnotic
Your shadow's in view
Vibrating Constantly
Vibrating Constantly
Piece by piece, stone by stone
Your darkness comes through

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
Is that a shark in the water??? Bottom left??

Little girl,
I don't know why you stay.
If I had a feather for every time daddy said that I could fly away.
Old habits are so hard to break
It'd be a shame to stop now that I've started to make really good mistakes.
