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"
