Shocking shakes from the Spring ground shoot everything skyward.
Screams & shrill shouts soar through the skies.
Shrimp-sized children spring out of bed to safety.
“Shouldn’t this be happening somewhere else?” so many scream out.
Shrubs stirred out of sports shoot in the windows.
Finally, Haiti’s people stop dead in their tracks.
The Spring ground’s shakes stop, but screams don’t
