The seismologist

Author's note: I did this poem in class as a homework, and I thought of giving it a name, and what I jotted down seems to have SOME connection with a seismologist, so here ya go.

The Seismologist

He went through all that pain,
only realizing what he did was in vain,
and for all the work there hasn't been gain.

After all he was no Batman,
nor was he like Jackie Chan,
he was just an ordinary man.

If this was a war then he wouldn't be winning,
for the disaster struck without warning.

Because all he had was speculation,
lacking any real information.

Now hundreds are hurt,
leaving buildings in the dirt.

He was...the seismologist.
