Ria

A ria is a coastal inlet formed by the partial submergence of an unglaciated river valley. It is a drowned river valley that remains open to the sea. Typically, rias have a dendritic, treelike outline although they can be straight and without significant branches. This pattern is inherited from the dendritic drainage pattern of the flooded river valley. The drowning of river valleys along a stretch of coast and formation of rias results in an extremely irregular and indented coastline. Often, there are islands, which are summits of partly submerged, pre-existing hill peaks. A ria coast is a coastline having several parallel rias separated by prominent ridges, extending a distance inland. The sea level change that caused the submergence of a river valley may be either eustatic (where global sea levels rise), or isostatic (where the local land sinks). The result is often a very large estuary at the mouth of a relatively insignificant river (or else sediments would quickly fill the ria). The Kingsbridge Estuary in Devon, England, is an extreme example of a ria forming an estuary disproportionate to the size of its river; no significant river flows into it at all, only a number of small streams.

    Maggots

    by: GWAR

    Vile forms of Necros lie rotting my mind
    Feasting like maggots - maggots in flesh
    So left your ruined cortex behind
    Now the maggot knows glee as it nibbles on your spine!
    [Chorus:]
    Maggots! Maggots!
    Maggots are falling like rain!
    Putrid pus-pools vomit blubonic plague
    The bowels of the beast reek of puke
    How to describe such vileness on the page
    World maggot waits for the end of the age!
    [Chorus]
    Beneath a sky of maggots I walked
    Until those maggots began to fall
    I gaped at God to receive my gift
    Bathed in maggots till the planet shit
    [Repeat chorus a lot]
