Of all the gods vexed

     Nature is most powerful almighty

          Paths of destruction wreaking havoc

               Catastrophic damage all shook up

 

               Wondrous consternation begging pardon  Why

          Unanswered prayers appeasement peace offerings

     Conceptually neither religious nor doctrinal

Redemptive divine Creator ruled out

 

Precariousness of human existence without

     Recourse inevitable outcome primal catharsis

          Muffled screams crying for revenge

                Clamor permanently stilled resignedly distressed

 

                So unexpected sobering vestige hangover

          Cloying uneasy sense vaguely anxious

     Tormented shadows cast motionless disquiet

Can’t deal with constant fear

 

Astonished silence rudely disrupted by

     Blaring sirens aftershocks amplified bullhorns

          Enigmatic complexity shifting paradoxical core

               Lightness and darkness become one

 

               Forbearance against future unprovoked attacks

          Shaken overturning crinkly old leafs

     Discomforted world struggling to cope

Cowering ghosts rising from ashes
