Praying all get out and recover quickly. Praying for the coach who along with his own life has had the great weight of responsibility on his still young shoulders. May he be treated with kindness.
Soccer coach and players, from 11 to 16 years old have been trapped in an underground cave for days. They were found many days later in the dark and hungry. Diving seals from their own and other countries have rescued some of them, at the writing of this verse. One diver lost his life.
MAE SAI
claustrophobic quarters
in and out, within
tamping down panic
for raven dark and frightful swim
slow and smooth seals deliver
— Thailand’s born again
