Cataclysm... <br />When Ganga recklessly <br />Overflowed through Shiva's tresses <br />Submerging Lord Himself <br />Cataclysm... <br />when Shiva floats <br />Blissfully in the fatal waters <br />Cataclysm... <br />when people were the props <br />In Ganga's dance of death <br />Cataclysm... <br />when death stopped by <br />To gather its booty <br />Along the banks <br />Cataclysm... <br />when the earth caved in <br />To fold human life into <br />Its unknown niches <br />Cataclysm... <br />when mountains rolled <br />Down the unprepared earth <br />Cataclysm... <br />when life's buried under <br />Vast sheets if water in revolt <br />And crushed under boulders <br /> <br />Yes, cataclysm is not <br />An event far into future <br /> <br />It's here and now!<br /><br />indira babbellapati<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/is-this-cataclysm/
