Equatorial Collapse

 

Not believing in

Im-providential bluster

 

Conspiracy only by

Nature tunneling

Through our

Understanding

 

Not ready to give in

That this is the end of

Our clay days

 

Number of who’s

Died in Ecuador

Adds more, one

Victim by one

 

Richter 7.8

 

So many, so much

Gone or fading into

Earth that all destroyed

Only invites a tomb

 

Ecuador

 

Queridos, tengan cuidado

 

Loved ones, literally

Have care, reach to

Possess

 

Seek it, hold it, share

 

Expect care’s arriving

With other, constructed

Parts of the world

 

La santidad en la vida

Anda con ustedes

Abajo del mundo

Y hasta a los cielos
