Disaster in Japan

In less than two minutes: earth split, tsunamis triggered, ensuing chaos...
Unbelievable right? ...

I couldn't quite believe it myself.


I'm in a mood for a haiku (largely thanks to the crazy antics of Ms. Curtin's class).

when the earthquake strikes
once waiting, biding its time
suddenly angry

*actually, I'm not entirely sure of the structure of a haiku besides the 5-7-5 syllable counts. heh....



Anyhow! Thank goodness Hiraku's family is okay! The feeling is completely different. From knowing no one, having no connection to Japan - to knowing a friend's family is in danger.

Not even in my darkest dreams...
surrounded by water, fire persists
knowledge destroyed
  irreparably broken
