Hellicane: Poets Respond to Hurricane Katrina

It's bad enough that Katrina stormed out of the room ripping, snorting mad danger simmering in her dark eyes throwing things aside in her sudden display of fury

Rita, her little sister, unobserved under the bed was watching with keen interest: she, who wanted to do everything that big sister did, learned her lesson well

She's on the exact same path Katrina was on, and will be remembered for the stress she is causing for those who are living along an already storm weary coastline
