I don’t usually post so regularly but this deserved its own space, I thought…
An Earthquake
The house shook
Only a brief disruption
Is the washing machine off balance?
No, the cycle is finished!
A quick search showed the cause
A 5.2 magnitude quake
162 kilometres north of Brisbane
A few minutes to affect Hervey Bay.
The balance of the Earth can shift
So rapidly when nature determines
Solidity is never certain
Life and all in it is ephemeral.
The human condition seeks certitude
But all around us things change
Evolving, devolving, moving and shifting
The only certainty in life is change.
