drip drop

Drip
drop.
Drip.
drop..
That's the sound most trickles of water makes.
The human body is 90% water.
Water is refreshing.
Water is invigorating.
Water is abundant.
Water is everywhere.

Too much of it can be devastating.
Too little of it can be deadly.


Drip.
drop.

Close your eyes and imagine being surrounded  by it and can't drink a drop of it.
Not being able to bathe in it.
Not being able to wade in it on a sweltering day.
Drip.
drop.
Drip.
drop.
Close your eyes again and imagine a whole city without any.
It's not too hard.
Its far away.
It's not in different country.
If you live in the Midwest its in your own backyard.


Drip
drop.
         drop.


     drip.




Where is it?
 A little  town called flint.
