Describing The outcome of the tsunami in Japan.
And Cherry Blooms
Lotus flowers
And Banzai delicacy
Crowded with tradition
And geisha grace
Crafted simplicity
Of respectful face
Where Divine Wind
Takes on New meaning
To a society
Where sacrifice is an expectation
Memoirs of disaster
Flail in steaming clouds
Written in earthen shifts
Of seismic power
An ocean of destruction
Wills nature's contempt
Of Scientific clumsy arrogance
Instructed as a lesson of ultimate power
Power no society can control
Power no faith can ordain
Power beautiful as it is destructive
Power fueled with our complacent waste
A demonstration of our helplessness
When the end of days marks our calendar
As we flounder as fish
Stranded where we are no longer welcome

Divine Wind
In a Land of Orchid petalsAnd Cherry Blooms
Lotus flowers
And Banzai delicacy
Crowded with tradition
And geisha grace
Crafted simplicity
Of respectful face
Where Divine Wind
Takes on New meaning
To a society
Where sacrifice is an expectation
Memoirs of disaster
Flail in steaming clouds
Written in earthen shifts
Of seismic power
An ocean of destruction
Wills nature's contempt
Of Scientific clumsy arrogance
Instructed as a lesson of ultimate power
Power no society can control
Power no faith can ordain
Power beautiful as it is destructive
Power fueled with our complacent waste
A demonstration of our helplessness
When the end of days marks our calendar
As we flounder as fish
Stranded where we are no longer welcome
