In The Land of the Red Rising Sun

In The Land of the Red Rising Sun

A Poem by Bo Lanier

Well and was this another seal broken

As the Pacific Ocean came crashing

Down over the red rising sun...

You stumble around on shaking

Grounds...so much disaster and

Destruction you wonder what else

Is to come as the night sets in...

The darkness is like a Demon you

Cannot escape and every broken

Road is a dead end...in terror you

Cry out where is my mother, where

Is my father, where are my children

And where are my friends...

Well could this just be a prelude

To the mystery of 2012 as the

Ocean comes crashing down again

Upon the red rising sun...you find

Shelter in the ruins of a broken down

Temple and closing your eyes you

Pray to your secret God and that seems

To give you a little hope but you know

How bad things are and will become...

In The Land Of The Red Rising Sun...

The night turns to day but your tears

And fears have not gone away...as you

And those stumble over the rubble

Where there used to be streets in the

Land, In the Land of the Red Rising

Sun!

 

~Dedicated to the people of Japan~
