Hurricane (9:30 AM August 27 2011)

swirling vortex of turmoil
approaches
blowing gales of wind and water
lashing shorelines
waves wash over barriers
like a giant hand clearing a table

cities brace for impact
as I watch preparation
for Jack’s funeral

a hurricane of emotions
shakes our foundations
surges through our cynical
defenses

waiting for a giant hand of
comfort and healing
to alight
featherlike
on our battered souls
