Tsunami Soup
The Soup is an Ocean,
a sea of writers, wanting to be heard
Each Poet is but a molecule,
a single element, in the vast compound
Each pen is the beginning,
of a quake, far below the surface
Culminating, larger, larger still,
until it is an unrestrained motion
With every thought, a ripple,
with every stroke of the pen, undulation
Until the writer completes their work
the tremor becomes a full blown quake,
Higher, higher with fevered pitch,
the reader feels the movement begin
From the very first word,
until the water wall of words grow
It continues to grow as we read on,
when we reach the Apex of the poem
We are overcast, with a shadow,
the curl of the wave, waiting to envelop us
As we reach the conclusion, final words,
the very content of the Poets mind
Comes crashing to the shore of our minds,
the reality, of Tsunami Soup...
