Hard not to think


about Japan, about whole towns tugged into the sea, about the threat of radiation leaks from the coastal nuclear power plants, about the rolling black outs, about how unprepared the most prepared can be. It is beyond imagining, or beyond mine: all the detritus left behind from the awful wave. I remember cleaning up after hurricane Camille, the sound of the generator, the heat and still air, beginning slowly to tackle one small section of yard.
