The Vortex

The wind stirs Around the vortex Of a hole in the Earth Sucking everything to its center Whirling around the hole created there Seemingly in a never-ending swirl around A striking display of awe inspiring grandeur A power beyond our own meager imagination Can there ever be peace within the turbulent destruction Or are we left to face the terrors inside the annihilative winds
