do not write about the stream lapping at your stream do not lap stream do not walk too close in case an unlucky tourist in good shape—perhaps from germany called ingrid—pushes you in do not let the weed grow in your mouth and spit it into another waterway

*

if you swim in the water but not naked make sure that you wash your mouth and your swimming togs in saline solution
