those poor okies!! That is great how you could get a haiku like this from the situation though.

I live ten miles south of where it happened, and was in a storm shelter, watching the news on my cell phone. It made quite an impact on everyone around here, and the area is far from being restored.

I will say, a very well written haiku that puts me right in the mood of the situation... I'm only sad for the inspiration behind it.

Thanks. It's very real and very sad, and I'm only glad it didn't happen to my family.
