Gadgets

Village full of boys and girls playing strong arms around waist romancing old friends on porch with guitars singing merry farmers on green hills harvesting not a bird on trembling wire singing grabbed by hair like doll earth is shaking rumbling lava torrents on city descending burying under darkness encrusting spitting ashes at planes faster than panicking anger of revolution once dormant exploding family tradition of unity unearthing easy of gadgets virtual love ending. Boys and girls again in village playing tailor shops and sound of shoemaker tapping from complexity to simplicity remnant circling fields of flowers dancing and robins singing knees in gratitude bent marveling at mystery of Love life continuing.

Just like life, we don't expect something until it hits with power. I'm afraid we don't notice the warnings either. Well done.

You paint a scene of calm and routine to start..until earth shakes and eruption spews in anger.
