The

earth shakes

violently an anger

seething beneath

the ocean

floor

weaving waves

come gushing

rolling water reaches

the shore

wonderous wall

of liquid destruction

comes crashing

down

onto houses

and children

now

your city

lies below the flood

my friend

destroyed

every grain

of

perception

Until

old habits

are washed away

Until

souls are cleansed

Until

a new earth

can

begin
