Seconds From Disaster: The Earthquake Poem by Guess Who

Red lights filling the air
Too bad nobody would care
Thank goodness i understood
Carried what i had of good
Being in a place so sensible
At any time the earth could tremble
Hide! Hide! I went warning
Their ignorance was very astonishing
One minute passed then two
Standing at my place not knowing what to do
Waiting for it to happen
Suddenly something fell: My pen
Opening my eyes was the scene
Amazing what i had seen
The roof was down to the floor
Outside a saw some more and more
The plain transformed into a hill
Killing our neighbor's windmill
Another tremble: the destructive wave
Sending me to the earth's deepest cave
Lost hope in living
Lost hope n surviving
Waiting for doom
In the humid gloom
Some light entered
This is it I'm Dead
Some more light
Blinding my sight
Back to my body feeling the pain
Confused driven to be insane
A hand descended and caught mine
Ensuring me that i was fine
Confused i followed it
Getting me out of my pit
Trying to understand
Where am I? God's land
I recognize my surrounding
I have survived the trembling
Someone from behind introducing me
I the only survivor in the city
Seems like everyone's gone
And I'm left forever alone
