~Katrina's footprint~
Gulf breeze deceives
in camouflaged reality
to settle on shores
with open heart doors
with smiles to the sun
over soft sand beaches.
"Neptune draw your breath ...
for your children weep."
... like the day Katrina stepped a shore.
Her fury for her father
the King of the Sea
scorned her reality
to suicide shores
she yelled out a gail
of a hundred or more.
"She took a liquid Hammer to Homes,"
...a bad seed spun spawned
in a hurricane dawn.
Neptune lost a daughter
but humanity was devastated
the ocean kings words spiraling
a mere whisper to us all
he lives and breeds
Kamakazi wind warrior Daughters.
"I am King," Neptune sings
his daighter, Katrina he seed
the cycling humanity bleeds.
Tornados of emotions
around every street
water higher than homes
mingles in tears seeped
the city of saints scorned
by Neptune's new born.
"Katrina's foot print forever,"
...when she stepped ashore
it was forever more.

Bill Dadaover 18 years agoIf we don't start to a lighter footprint on the planet, the gods of nature will leave a deeper footprint on mankind. A ying for a yang. A very good write.

in the interest of improvement -
Kamakazi wind warrior Daughters.
"Kamakazi" does not fit in with the rest of the images
LeBrozover 18 years agoA mythic view
of the wreckage strewn
by the wind we call ~
Katrina.
A good read here Art.
RhymeFairyover 18 years agoI had not seen this one Art. I love it !!
Very emotional and imaginitive.
Fresh and heartbreaking.
So much emotion from the devistation ...
Senseless devistation leaving so many hurt and alone. Wonderful write, full of heart.
