ArtistA Japanese-American woman sits at a desk with oragami farmer doll she made. She sits looking at a big red barn out the window where a chipmunk sits on the windowsill. She has a look of despair and Japanese books are piled and open next to her with Kanji study. This time, the screen on the wall shows the ring of fire and features Japan. A thought bubble shows the massive 2011 tsunami. A piece of luggage nearby indicates #NL #HN& airport 2011 in que.
Unplanned, life or should I say "influence" stopped me from leaving for Japan more than once.
Simply to teach English abroad. The first time, there was the Tsunami,
And no empathy for trying to help in small ways that I was able to.
No, it was lonely.
Now, it's the Ring of Fire-- and I'm missing everyone and saying heart wishes that those who helped me are protected.
