New Madrid

Well I love Tennessee, the mountains, the rivers and the valleys. Knoxville, Chattanooga and Nashville. But Memphis is a disaster Waiting to happen again like it did in the late 19th century when the New Madrid first made its presence known. The Mississippi river Ran backwards for days and days and Thousands of Indians and Pioneers lost their lives and homes as the liberty bell tolled the hour. The whole east coast felt its power! Heaven have mercy on our souls because it is overdue to shake Things up again! Only God knows when but it's destined to come Around again... It seems like not too many people are unaware of the NEW MADRID And the devastation at hand or is it we are just too preoccupied with war and The carrying on of the other lands well I don't know but I do know one thing for sure history Has a peculiar way of repeating its self. So let’s not be so quick to put this book back on that Shelf. Take care in all you do don't you know we are not promised Tomorrow and the NEW MADRID is a bombshell about to split America into Could be the gates of hell and we're all as good as screwed!
