Irma my dear, what have we done to make you mad?
You have hit us so hard with all that you had...
With boisterous winds and torrential rains,
You have left many of us hurting and stranded for days...

Like a woman scorned you have unleashed your fury,
And had no mercy for judge nor jury...
Buildings flat, water reaching the roof,
It must be something that you are trying to prove

You skipped from isle to isle searching for what, we don’t know
But obviously, you are livid, because your anger really shows...
You completely destroyed all that’s in your path,
But somehow we (ANU)have managed to miss your wrath...

Was it heartbreak from your beloved Harvey?
Or you’re just trying to make us pay for the pain you now carry?
Whichever way, it doesn’t make it right,
To destroy lives and nations out of spite...

For how long will you be in this rage?
Behaving like an animal out of its cage...
So many people are in fear,
But your heart is so heavy, there is no room to care...

You will look back and see what you have done,
And probably smile and say, you have only just begun...
But sooner or later you will have to quit,
Because rage and anger makes you unfit...

Your time will be over when a younger woman comes
By then you’ll be old and thirsty with no air in your lungs...
Quit while you’re ahead and leave us in peace,
And don’t allow your anger to make the devastation increase.
