Remorse

What have I done
My last quake killed all
destroyed mountains
contaminated seas
ruined forests

True
I hated man’s abuse
Their arrogance
Stupidity
Insensitivity

I hated their greed

Their petty wars 
Not their final demise
It was me

My anger 
solved nothing
My destruction
solved nothing

Now I’m alone
Victim of my
hot headed temper
Anger served no one
Did no good

Next time
If there is a next time
I’ll practice tolerance
Live in love
Kindness
Compassion
