Hellicane: Poets Respond to Hurricane Katrina

K- is for the killer you turned out to be\r\nA- is for the absent, washed out to sea\r\nT- is for the terror that came our way\r\nR- is for the rescued, still alive today\r\nI- is for the impact, you smashed upon our shore\r\nN- is for the numbers, sprayed on the doors\r\nA- is for all of us: the strong, the weak, the rich, the poor, the\r\nbrave, the meek, the young, the old, the heroes who came -- how can any of us\r\never forget your name.
