The Days are Getting Shorter

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: March 14, 2015

How much longer to the end?…

The days are getting shorter.*
It's amazing. Quite absurd.
And all because of Chile
and the earthquake they endured..

That 8.8 explosion
deep within our planet's crust
was so strong its axis shifted.
And you wonder why the fuss.

Less daylight in just an instant.
Kind of scary, don't you think?
Could these natural disasters
mean that we are on the brink...?

The frequency with which we hear
of earthquakes, floods and war
gives us pause to humbly ponder...
"In God's game plan, what's the score?"
