Deluge
Because
The
Water
Was
Too
Warm
And
The
Wind
Too
Strong,
The
Elemental
Balance
Went
Wrong,
And
The
Sea
Sloshed
Over
The
Land
Like
A
Spilled
Saucer
Of
Tea,
Washing
Away
Every
House
And
Tree
For
As
Far
As
One
Can
See.
Foolish
Humans,
Who
Build
On
Sand
And
Think
To
Withstand
Forces
Beyond
Scope,
Which
Know
Nothing
Of
Hope
Or
Strife,
And
Calmly
Recede
After
The
Deed
Is
Done,
And
Nature
Has
Won.
