Longevity

Beautiful volcanoes and oceans;

Destructive grandeur running free…

Can either bury me tomorrow

Or create tsunami debris.

I have many emotional boundaries,

Trumped by teutonic seismic plates…

Evidently our life’s decisions,

Have few effects upon our fates.

Resting on an earthquake fault,

It is just a matter of time…

Via earthquake or tsunami

We’re only canaries in the mine.
