Sarah’s Reaction
Cracking, shifting plates
Destruction follows
Swooshing, sucking water
In, over Earth’s wounds
Enourmous, indestructable force
Pure power pushing, claiming land
Barely a warning
All shores fear
Cruel
Merciless
Almighty
Leaving nothing
Save those who quake and tremble with terror
No room, no time
For sick fascination
This moment, nothing’s sweeter than life
Move
Out
Of the way
The sea. Pulling, calling waters thick and black
With dirt and dark sorrow
Back to the depths, to calmer waters
Taking all which ripped from the ground
Loved ones washing away.

Deep thinking, pumpkin-doodle. My heart is aching, too, but you put it so beautifully. –G’ma Niki
