PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

When the surge comes and washes it all away,

no power the past week, this day or the next day,

city still stands, population wakes up,

living all the human mistakes that make us,

all one can wonder is, is she okay?

will she still be okay the next day?

she responds quickly, "everything is fine",

so now the only problems i have are mine,

emotionally been through numerous Sandy's,

no matter the count, physically it demands we,

help out our neighbors in a time of need,

travel to the most devastated areas, no greed,

roll up a spliff, corner smoking a joint,

the day i helped clean up Breazy Point,

for all those affected, for all who had to pack up,

we are a strong city, we will stand back up.
