A Franken storm

A Franken storm on the way

Hee ho! fear my ways
O' ye Yuppies
I was born a killer
so be wary
hide your heads...
Sandy is my name, and I
am on my way

I am full of anger
will rattle your guts
my ways are not straight
I will swaggle your coast
aim at your heart (DC)
bruise the city of brotherly love

North, will I then head
shower my swath, with
pelting rain, howling
wind, hail and snow
on all thy 13 founding states
Tomorrow, I aim for the Big Apple

Yup, I was born a hell raiser
a thousand missiles,
packed within my chest
to stir up your angst
and I promise... an
unforgettable show

When I am done
you will surely,
have the biggest scare
to remember me
this Hallows night
ye, all you non-believers!

I am Sandy,
a son of satan
Here to ring your
daylights out, pop your eyes
this night of the full moon
Ahh-wooooooooo......

(edited....trying to make this better)

So, I would like to post this challenge to all poets who wish to participate. Show your poetic talent to match this evil one! Post you poems based on any Hurricane or natural disaster you have experienced or simply make one based on your knowledge of recent disasters.

(My sympathies and best wishes to all who will experience the wrath of Sandy, soon to hit the upper East coast, with a whammy).
This one is predicted to be the biggest storm ever of its kind since 1903.

Ok...here's my attempt...I was looking for the poem I wrote about Cyclone George which hit WA in 2007 but couldn't find it so....just an off the cuff one to get the ball rolling :)

Untitled...(Double Senryu)

Your Eye...

Mayhem...your iris
destruction dilates pupil:-
you blink then, goodbye.

My Eye...

Through my lens...rubble
aqueous humour? they're ...tears:-
I wish I was blind.

Beautiful! and not so easy, should give it a try, it's been a long time since I've wrote anything!

Hellon, that's deep/dark...I need to kick my brain

LS... It's hurricane Sandy, not Sammy :)

Fixed. Thank you. Though Sammy rhymed better with whammy! I made the same error in the body of the poem last night when writing it up in record time for me (10 mts), which Hellon was kind enough to quickly point out.

Hellon, a deep Senyru, enjoyed.

C'mon everyone, you have the next several days to write one up...anything related to a natural disaster...hurricanes/cyclones, earthquakes, hailstorms, and more.

Written after braving Ike coming through Houston.

Full Moon Hurricane

Darkness. Howls. Nothing else.
Huddled on the ground, witness to mayhem;
a shroud of deeper abyss passes in a blink
and the eye reveals a hole of brilliance,
explosive - expanding - generative, fluid.

Clarity: a landscape appears of dropping trees,
flooded gullies and torn branches;
nothing living ventures out save me in curious folly.

This hollow night is imbued
with unnatural sepia moonlight spreading;
the grandeur mixes into roiling clouds of ink,
light fades rapidly away, blown back to the source
as a wall of destruction whips me again to the ground,
and the eye is gone, preternatural tranquility extinct.

(13 Sep 2008, Meyer Park)

Superb sentiments Larry. I love how you poetically define "darkness" and "clarity" on "hollows night."

I am sandy.
I went to school with irene and katrina
they can't even twerk.
...

is that good?

Hot air from Nallydumas was my attempt to predict the hurricanes and tropical storms of 2010

Hot air from Nallydumas
by Michael D Nalley
I can tell you this
Danielle will be a Miss
unsinkable as the titanic
unthinkable to el Hispanic
but Earl will give it a whirl
Category four
and then more
Fiona will fart
right from the start
Time for lots of tissue
when Gaston has an issue
As for Hermine
floods determine
much more
than Igor
cat 4
Don't be too quick to snarl
at Julia and Karl
the pan handle
awaits a big surprise!!
a category two
without restriction
what is my prediction?
EL from SNL.. El Nino
is Spanish for the child
Lisa loopner and Todd
Should she stay or go wild
Does anyone know
where the Love of God goes
when the winds of November
come early?

LOL Yaki hahahhaha omg :')

Thank you Michael and Yaki (yours is incomplete, though..) for adding to this thread with your thoughtful poems. I would love to see more people add their art here...
