Hurricane Warning
News people swear it
will consist of water from the sky
and high winds.
Everyone panicks.
lining up in stores like Nazi's
BOTTLED WATER is a must...
bombarding the cart full
A little spice in the soup pot and
the headless chickens flail
The wind has shattered tree's
The rain smacks your roof
The precious lights
out
Everyone is fine
But another great conversation piece can
be talked about for days and weeks
Ensuring your friends
you thought you might need to evacuate
your wife was worried
your children cried for TV
A first tragic event in the
households memory.
Never having to hear children
cry due to blown off limbs
Mothers being raped
like savages
Bombs falling like rain
for nothing.
"Those things must just be in the movies"
