Notes About The Poem

from my new book of poetry,  Moths and Machetes  (2017)

The Great Storm

the great storm  (Renku)

the skies unleash Hell 
the trees fall like pick up sticks
mighty man trembles

flee! flee! The news screams
You must evacuate now 
Mighty man trembles

rain, wind tortures land
tides destroy all before it
the sun makes encore
