I just read a book,
Called “Category Seven”,
Of catastrophic stories I seem to like,
What with hurricanes like Katrina,
And just this past weekend, Ike…
Then I dream of even a Cat five,
Hitting New Jersey and such,
I am but inland but miles thirty-5,
A good high gust of wind,
And away would blow Rufuz & I,
A trailer slash motorhome,
Is no place to live with winds very much…
Scary though thoughts like that may be,
I know it will come one day again, you’ll see,
Where in this great land should I move,
I think there is no place safe totally in this whole country,
So I guess that Rufuz & I would be just so much debris...
