Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Slidings

Not one but two landslides befell

The Goffa community where

Such tragedy is known too well

To Ethiopians living there.

July of twenty twenty four

Heavy rains fell upon the land

Until the land could hold no more.

Hundreds were buried beneath and

When others came to help rescue,

A second slide would bury them.

In place and time nature can do

So much misery and mayhem.

Condolences for all who died,

The victims caught as land did slide.
