Christmas Quake

[weedguru_animal]

Did you see it?have you heard?
about the natural massacre that has occured?
while we were enjoying our sweet christmas cake,
near the island of SUmatra was violent earthquake,

It happened underneath the water,
sending tidal waves towards the land on a mission to slaughter,
anything and anyone which got in the way,
no-one saw it coming, disguised by a blanket made of sun ray,

so many dead, and I cant find a reason why
i cant escape knowledge of the tragedy no matter how hard to i try,
to get high.
I can feel the clutches of disbelief,
in a world governed by anything other than random grief,

I wish I had some money, I'd definately donate,
try help improve the life a kid who's parents were taken by fate,
but all i can do is offer my sorrow,
and pray to a god if there is one and hes listening,
for a more peaceful and brighter tommorow,
cos we killing each other without the help of the earth,
maybe its finished weighing up humanitys worth,
and the time has begun for a worldwide cull,
the rest of the life can stay, but the soul of the planet wants to eradicate the human skull......

That was gorgeous, Animal. Sometimes it's hard to fathom the sheer intensity and reprecussions of this natural disaster, living on the other side of the world and all. Reading your poem made me think of Star Wars, the original. When Alderaan is destroyed and Obi-Wan says he felt a great disturbance in the force, llike a million voices crying out at once. He could sense it from lightyears away, and here on Earth so many people can feel nothing at all towards the sudden death of 20.000 some individuals.

Thanks for donating the literature Animal

peace

cheers people, as ever, yeh shame i couldn't write more, cos the scale of this disaster is rising all the time. its savage to think of all theose lives lost so suddenly, for no reason other than they happened to be in thw rong place and the wrong time. i remember visiting some of the places that were savaged by the waves, i guess the only way i can look at this is that we all gotta do our best to live life as much as we can cos you never know whats around the corner.
i like the comparison with sta wars.
peace and goodwill to asll for the new year.
