My house is not the same anymore. It used to live independently from the surrounding nature, but ever since the quake it has become a part of it. Its foundation has put down roots, its windows and holes have opened up to let in the harsh wind, transforming it into a wind mill. It now breathes together with the storm, directs its eyes at the poisonous sun, speeding up the beats of its wounded heart. Being inside of it makes me feel like I'm inside some beastly creature, that walks around the wood carrying me together with it... Sometimes it sits down to take a little rest - its breath slows down then, it closes its eyes making the vision outside the windows of the house misty and blurred, making me feel dizzy and motionless... At another time the creature would suddenly start running around, shaking upside down - this blocks my ears and makes my chest hurt... This place will never be the same anymore. It will take forever to tame it down... to bring back to the world of people from the world of element...
