adapted from Quake moved Japan coast 8 feet; shifted Earth's axis
1,300 gone
Swept to sea by giant storm
Silence in their wake
Coast line washed away
Erased by strong hands of storm
Shifting Earth’s axis
Look up at the sky
Skyscrapers swaying like trees
in ferocious winds
Angry ocean rose
30 foot wall of water
swept through fields of rice
Tokyo in flux
Subways emptied, airport closed
Thousands long for home
