From Beneath the Sea

The planes come
flying in here
all of the time
with Matson Shipping
not far behind.
Oahu is only
an island erupted
by a volcano from
beneath the sea,
and there's so darn
many cars and malls
and people living
here now right now
that it seems like
its sinking to me.

Understand your pain, my man, but look at it this way.  I feel the same about the Houston Texas area (and I live 30 or so miles out) but we don't have the beauty here that you have there....so, look around, enjoy the gifts, and when the water gets to your ankles ... it's time to move.....heh, heh...

I know you're not really "complaining" my friend...don't misunderstand this....

jwesley I think that I am complaining, but don't worry I can see the good and the bad, and I have shared some words of the beauty of Hawaii in previous writings...
Sunshine I'm glad that you liked this..James
