Ms. Placed Energy
I can remember the day well,
When mango blossoms turned to soot,
And the roasting fever like fire,
Took hold of all underfoot.
The air smelled putrid and corrupt,
And the pale-light forgot to show,
Through the blackest and darkest night yet,
Your shiny assassin all aglow.
His edges dulled my dark felt,
And the flames of our passion flare too far to sustain,
But please, regret not our intent,
Focus not, on the swet pain.
The pain of being with you, still a memory,
A bristled thorn in my mind and yet,
The chorus of friends, a euphony,
Singing of things we shouldn't forget,
Quickly soothes and then,
Sleep...
A drift net,
Cathches,
Up with me.
...written Fall 2002....

Ahhhmmm
Well, it has been one week, since the devastation of bedrock, or as we like to affectionately call, " Hurricane Wilma".
Changes have been made and recovery is making strides. The biggest change in people's mind though is the lessons learnt. Never take a Hurricane lightly. Alot of pepole took Katrina lightly because, well, it landed here as a category one, and compared to New Orleans, didnt phase us really. Most expected the same with the Babe from Bedrock. Oh , so , not the case. Would you even believe there are reports that it struck as a category one and not the horror of three as we all witnessed! How lame and sad. If true, that a cat one could have devastated us so....
Anywho's, I've made a deliberation to not discuss the merits of hurricane life anymore. Everyone is trying to dust off their flanks and pick up, start from stratch again. All personal efforts made recently to have a more civilised life (i.e. job hunting), well, has to be resurrected from the ground up again. Ahhh well. It is life after all, dealing with blow after blow,or more recently, puff after puff after huff after puff.
