Our River

There is only one river that goes traveling sidewise,
  that interferes in politics,
   rearranges geography 
  and dabbles in real estate;
A river that plays hide and seek with you today
   and tomorrow follows you around 
   like a pet dog with a dynamite cracker
    tied to his tail.
That river is the Missouri.
                                          George Fitch
                                           Rivers of America 1945
