crashed all lines
untold
all hell broke loose,
ere the eyes winked
the water
thicker than blood
swept through homes
its tentacles
soaring
touched the skies
engulfing buildings
cars, trains, lives
everything
giant fireballs rose
into the face of death
into the face of death
birds fled from their trees
but not humans
devoid of any escape
sought safety on rooftops
waved white scarves in vain
as houses swayed and tumbled
like castles of sand
cars floated on roof tops
ships overturned like toys
into the sea,
never to be seen again
the world watched
the whirlpool of destruction
in horror
helplessly
in horror
helplessly
stunned, shaken
the blows of death
was never more cruel
was never more cruel
never more menacing
huh
the waves have rolled back
lifeless rubble remain
cars and planes strewn
the debris of destruction
only the oblivious silence looms
Grief stricken sights
all around
of
all around
of
broken dreams
shattered lives
fallen tears
of a once beautiful world
crumbled
