Water Shadow Doll

Aloha poets,
     Can you find a Hawaiian shadow doll behind the waterfall? Inspires
today's poetry. Enjoy!

Turtle Turbines

Silence watches on old rosewood stairs
A deep departure showers its own prayers
Alligator slaughterhouses rise from the ruins
Giant turtle turbines the new Amazon bruins

Few people heard of this giant dam's plans
In the heart of tributary, few Indian clans
Where hope flames, the wild river runs
Concrete, steel become our new guns

Critic-proof jungle bulb turbine tech
Giant turbines the flood once wreck
Reshape giant rivers in dam birth
Alter the rotation of planet earth
