Earthquake
inertia makes the world spin
we can't feel this because at the same constant speed we're all moving with it
but regardless, the whole Earth is spinning
as a little kid when this is explained to you
you can literally feel your head spin
trying to fathom something so crazy and out of control is happening
you stand and close your eyes and imagine the ground beneath your feet moving
and you feel it
you tell the person explaining this to you and they laugh
you just try to wrap your head around this fact that changes your world
this is how I feel right now
like learning to live with this new reality
is what I have to accept
i can’t understand it
i’m not ready yet but I doesn’t change the facts
and someone’s God is just laughing
and my head won’t stop spinning
with this life altering eye changing new world
without you in it
