essay #03 TSUNAMI HELL

DIGITAL GLOBE/AAP

BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS...
This Tsunami Hell...
Seas of fury...
Rips children from their parents safe embrace...

Indiscriminate...
Savage...
Cruel...

TOO DEVASTATING TO CONTEMPLATE...

Sweet Jesus...

Tropical morgue...
Watery grave...
Mass burials...
Boardshort-bodies...
Dragged from the malarial depths...
Children...
Orphans...
Now pale imitations...
Of the living...

THERE ARE NO WORDS...
ONLY...
DEEP...
BOTTOMLESS...
SORROW...

2004...
EPITAPH TO DEVASTATION...
In Memorial...
