Just moments after the eye stops staring insatiably at us You can hear the flicking on of all those machines As you walk down the flooded streets so slow The violinists pull the strings, and on they go One to the left of us, three to the right Two in front of us, and none to the behind
The conductors swing their arms The symphony clangs, alarms Lighting up the homes and the tv screens Chilling the musicians, and the shaky beams Walk around some more, you'll hear one hit a low C While you slosh through the street's home sea
if anyone cares, I haven't been posting here because I haven't been writing. I've only been experiencing. Specifically, I've been experiencing Hurricane Irma and the aftermath thereof. This is a poem about that aftermath. I hope you enjoy it.
