The March 11 2011 Tsunami

Humans are toiling,
like little ants
running back and forth,
searching for food
day and night, not knowing
about the lurking,looming danger
coming in from far-off waves.

Faceless Ocean Monster wakes up,
emerging from a huge crust crack.
Stretches its humongous water tongue
endlessly engulfing everything it touches.
With no mercy, it swallows and sets on fire
cars, houses, ocean liners, nuclear power plants....
Everything, like tiny toys, has helplessly crumbled,
swiftly drowned or ablaze in the deluge--
nothing but floating rubble.

Faceless Ocean Monster cold-blooded
keeps crushing and engulfing everything
into its huge bottomless stomach.
Rhythmically it trembles
every time it swallows.

Humans, like little ants,
are dispersing frantically
in all directions,
running for life safety,
while indignant Nature
shows no mercy.
