Earthquakes
2012
I
can see the ruptured waves bring down the homes of children
like
a bad case of GERD, earthquakes bring out the worstgreat magnitudes of fractured faults beneath the earth show on maps
Earthquakes move, shake, and bounce while we go on with our lives
we pay no mind each hectic day until they shriek above 3.0
check out Beverly Hills 3.4, Yorba Linda 4.1, Brawley 5.3, Indonesia 6.6
I can see the frequent nightmares not known to begin or end
like the bop your spine makes after being inactive a long time
one loose part in this engine causes others to choke and burst
Earthquakes spill lava tears bitten chocolate covered ice cream bar breaks
like the cracks of marriage slamming seismic plates against each other
dry ice attaches to my hand and falls smashed near the table
