Deep in the ocean something stirs
Plates shift, energy builds then death freed
Rising from the depths tsunami begins
Travels faster and faster
Deadly potential mounts
Land ahoy, tsunami slows
Unaware people just play
Wall of water grows and grows
Hits the land and kills its prey
Life’s catastrophe
Grief, despair beyond belief
Waves of destruction

A combination of crystalline (8,9 syllables), kimo (10,7,6 syllables), quatrain (7,7,7,7 syllables) and haiku (5,7,5 syllables)
