Aftermath Of Hurricane Florence

Aftermath Of Hurricane Florence

Florence hydra logical might -
tee pseudo tentacles, monstrous sight
didst bring watery plight,
deluge rivaling Noah - bliss oblige

epic flood of biblical
proportions, downright
terrible, re:, a drowning egregious fright
ten ning (in contest

able uber catastrophe) - Don know why
das trumpeting spare none, tossing,
pitching, and lap
ping blithely alight

ting across geography of thee
Old North State leaving affright
full trail of destruction, (envied by
the ghost of General

William Tecumseh Sherman),
he no match, where battling
mortal men didst bite
the bullet outflanked,

sans doodling Yankees topflight
capstone march to the sea,
then touted as outright
masterful stroke, asper,

turning tide of historical Civil war,
which swath of indiscriminate overnight
destruction in tandem
followed his Georgia quick step,

successful Atlanta battle, fight
ten, which campaign
rendered victory in sight
Union accorded devastated country

as winning booty, viz prizefight
ting champions clearly, grimly,
and lamentably plunged
once promisingly emergent

then vanquished Confederacy
with defeat written
in figurative bombsight,
qua Rebels surrendering

at lanced armstrong
rapier pointed to Appomattox Court House
original United States territory
initially indigenous copyright,

stolen, whence ark enemy
routed, killed, and decimated
blood brethren human kind -
versus present natural disaster

no matter meteorologists foresight,
nonetheless horrendously cruel debacle
crushing The Tar Heel state
trouncing analogously

as aqueous blight
damn hellacious sight
tropical storm forcibly reclaiming
visa vis re

discovered primacy birthright
(i.e. revanchist deeded sic - seeded),
what "she," viz Mother Nature
felt tubby "her" right,

bar no holds Gaia
pulled out all stops
punishingly ravaged North Carolina
mercilessly didst wring

havoc bore out flooding
and proved accurate "NON
FAKE" fervent devout
alarmist theologians

appropriating weather forecasters dire
prediction as doomsday message
fore taste testing, telling, and texting
presaging Armageddon authored

by cosmic playwright,
whence global pulverizing,
savaging, and torturing spite
fully sucker punching

swing, perhaps indicative dire strait
(a hunch from this topflight
atheist) posits ultraright
religionists possibly ascribe
divine creator a bit uptight.

you're style is reminiscent of the greats of the beat generation, and I think it's incredible.
