Aftershock
The shaking won’t subside.
I stand in the open.
Nowhere to hide.

Frightening thought! Your poem conveys a sense of helplessness very well.
Thank you, Debbie.
The way an earthquake cracks the land–just stunning. I live near the San Andreas Fault out here in CA. Just wow.
Oh my. I bet you have felt many earthquakes while living there. I think it’s stunning, too.
I feel many have experienced those feelings. Well done, Kymber.
Stay steady, my friend. ♥ Thank you.
