Haiti Poem (inspired by a New York Times article) by Dominick "Tino" Williams

He had just returned
To his hotel from a day
Of filming when the
Earthquake struck, trapping
Him beneath six stories of
Rubble.
The first aid and
Cpr app treat a compound
Fracture of his leg and a
Cut on his forehead.
When things settled a
Little bit, he tried to look
Around. He couldn’t see
Anything, it was complete
Darkness. He felt God gave
Him some tools to help him survive.
He just saw the walls rippling
And explosive sounds all
Around him.
