Like a French Quarter whore,
you raised your skirts
high above their heads
and swirled them
in your wicked and gyrating dance.
Always keeping your eye
on the money,
you led your ever-following bands
in a raucous and rolicking concert
of wind instruments and howling vocals-
Raising the roofs and shattering glass
with your high-pitched cacophony,
that's music only,
to your own ears.
A party-crasher and a home-wrecker.
A shameless hussy,
you delighted in the aftermath
of your deadly profession,
as you moved your too-fat ass
farther north
for a little more foreplay.
You're no better
than a two-cent tramp,
who's asking price totals billions-
leaving all spent, weary and broke,
but no one feeling satisfied
after your multi-climactic raping.
Was it worth all your energy?
Worth your time?
Worth your now-soiled name?
Did you have your catagorized pleasure
at the unwilling expense of others?
Did you even notice,
those down on their knees-
not to pleasure your watonness,
but begging for very mercy?
Or did you just slap them aside
once you were sated,
with your flailing skirts,
after you used them so perversely?
Katrina,
you're no lady.
But time shall pay you back, Jezebel-
ten-fold.
For it won't be long now,
till your old and withered,
sagging and dried up.
And no one even notices you
passing through anymore-
except as a few darkened shadows
and the sprinkling tears
of a fallen woman.
Absolutely excellent take on the storm!
Really enjoyed reading this.
