Sandy, Mother, May I?
Your ravaging calls disrupt the season
Shaking the shivering shields that smashed
As I watch the jagged arms that detach
The body that buckled to the kneed roots
Croaking, the lifeless fall to their roots
Ripping the ground of the grounded
Seeping your destruction onto the shaped
Shaping the unshaped into deformity
Tides that tithe the dimes for power…powerless
Leaving the lives of the listless
Hoping that homes uphold in the haste
Of your beatings, we suffered…and suffering
Searching for an answer, they await to the next
Losing the love that lived to like the living
Slowly slipping away in the darkness
Even without the sound of our T.V. screens,
The booming of rousing music from radio,
The fleet of videos we are charmed,
Or the fanatically popular electricity,
Do we dare say we have not the power?
