It's Another Tragedy, Lord (A Pray For Japan)

Dear God,

Here's another tragedy

I managed to watch on  big screen;

tears on Japan are  tears on us

If this is a sequel of drama presented digitally;

I do hesitate to tell its Author's moral messages

Let alone the season finale...

I must humbly bow to You for my stupidity

let alone those who dwell in the chosen land

for my extreme limited spectacles,

this is beyond imagination: the loss, the destruction, the trauma

more than senses could consume

more than anything...

If this is a signal from Mother Earth;

attempting to search for, so-called- a new balance

since our hands keep dirty with dust of destroy

since our minds keep plotting new spots be transformed into money

then give us Your Mercy, God!

for Your Mercy will heal all anger of  fire, waters, ice of nature

for we mostly think we step ahead when we actually step down

If this is a teaching;

then let all tragedies, miseries, wars, devastation

be our Prime Teachers to learn the real meaning of compassion, solidarity, and positiveness

than to scavenge the wisdom in each and every path of life

than to look for footsteps of nature prior to disaster

even demystify them

give us brave and strength: to recover, to reconcile, to rebuild

our fragility, our nation, our selves

amen!
