The poem is at the bottom half of it. Doesn’t let me put the full poem , ( Earthquake by Raul Herrera) Please help me thank you if you can.

In 1906, an earthquake ruptures the San
Andreas Fault devastating 3,000 people.
If vibrations can break boulders and devastate
lives,
Then our words can split open minds and alter
the geographical shape of its content,
because sound is vibration
Our verbs are its earthquakes, and our hands
are much like the Richter scale
Charting the magnitude of our words, so when
you write
Fight the urge to destroy your enemies because
an earthquake
Named Gandhi
Once told me even revenge has aftershocks
That even a whisper can cause a revolution
In 2010, an earthquake takes the lives of
300,000 Haitians
Dor underestimate the Hercules behind your
tongue
Your voices are the reason this planet's axis is
tilted, but your silence is the reason this
planet is dying
So let's cause a ruckus
If earthquakes can destroy lives, our voices can
rebuild them

Which excerpt from the war of the worldseffectively reveals how the author relates the climax of the narrative through the narrator's thoughts? the war of the worldsall this had happened with such swiftness that i had stood motionless, dumbfounded and dazzled by the flashes of light. had that death swept through a full circle, it must inevitably have slain me in my surprise. but it passed and spared me, and left the night about me suddenly dark and unfamiliar.and then, with a renewed horror, i saw a round, black object bobbing up and down on the edge of the pit. it was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun.at that time it was quite clear in my own mind that the thing had come from the planet mars, but i judged it improbable that it contained any living creature. i thought the unscrewing might be automatic.my mind ran fancifully on the possibilities of its containing manuscript, on the difficulties in translation that might arise, whether we should find coins and models in it, and so forth. yet it was a little too large for assurance on this idea. i felt an impatience to see it opened.
