Like a Nightmare

An article explains acid rain causes orange slime.

Just when I thought I had seen it all in the last two months,
I wake up this morning after it rained to see this.
It was not on this tree before and never been seen in my life!
Like a nightmare that will not stop, something has taken a hold of nature.
How do I write about beauty, when the things I have seen are horrendous?
All I can do is show truth, because that's what I am living through.
All I can do is try to get testing done and figure things out.
When nature changes in these ways, so does life.
It takes going through it to understand how it can be like a nightmare.

Things are not ok Tom. That's why I haven't been around much. I have never experienced this. The govt. Is not helping people at the scene in Ohio either. Many are sick. They won't acknowledge this catastrophe because they caused it by burning the toxic chemicals in ditches from the hazardous train cars that derailed, so they are responsible for the plume and widespread effect all the way to Canada.!
