The rain it came, softly falling Then came the wind, the voice of Mother Nature She screamed and howled out her pain Giving birth to the hurricane Called Katrina

The people did not believe or take heed Her wetland birth canal had been ripped, sloth off Gone, no longer able to protect her body shore Katrina, Oh Katrina exploded in a breached gush

Mother was proud of her new infant Katrina Moving her north for the rest of the coast to view Then the people found out, of the sunshine she left - Came the dark and creeping, bleeding onto the land

Mother nature was still bleeding from her birth The dark liquid spilled over the levees, isolating and killing There seemed no escape for the people left behind No voice had they to be heard, hunger and thirst excelled

Desperation, dirty, hungry and tired, they cried helpless Shots rang out and still no place could they go to hide For where Mother Nature left off, evil man took over Hell fires burn in murky waters as floating corpses rise

Is this my country Is this my America?
