Anticipating Sandy
Ready! Set!
Arriving tomorrow!
The 24/7 Cassandras
with all their
techno-toys
predict a big one:
the biggest,
strongest,
highest, lowest, most
destructive,
longest, widest,
tallest
monster wind and wave
extravaganza.
An epic storm, a
perfect storm,
a storm of the
barely-begun
century.
Just one day left, so
board up your windows,
batten the hatches,
raid the markets,
and lock up your
daughters!
Stock up on water, find
your flashlights,
and where are the
batteries?
Gas up your car, and
tie down the cat.
Charge and charge
again
electronic devices
that govern your lives.
Pack your bags;
prepare to run.
Is this what we've
become?
Masters of the
universe,
but fearful of the
wind?
