earthquake

...growing up in southern california near the san andreas fault in el centro, it was inevitable that i would eventually experience a major earthquake event...

it happened one hot day...the shaking started and i rushed outside onto the front lawn...sprawled on my belly i witnessed the entire event...

as i looked down the street i saw waves of movement in the lawns, the street, and the sidewalks that resembled the waves on the ocean...i was on the ocean...

the cars parked on the street shook back and forth on their parking brakes...the trees all trembled in place...my body swayed on the waves of earth as the ground roiled and rumbled...

i was on the sea of uncertainty...the fate of time...it's an earth-quake!
