Poem Artwork

The     sky     is   a    livid     vivid    blue-black
The        scorched        torched        clouds
sheared             speared             seared
by     jagged     bolts     of     light----
the      clouds      are      tortured
tattered                   shattered
PULSATING              Rotating 
Animated            Agitated
Roiling                Boiling
>>>>Concentrated<<<<
into     a     swirling
whirling     funnel
of  uncontrolled
fury!  A maelstrom
savaging ravaging
raping scraping
cartwheeling
congealing
revealing
its true
nature
look
deep

AND BEHOLD THE EYE OF THE STORM.

(C) Copy written, 2003, by Karla Dorman.

What a vivid word picture you paint. I am very afraid of tornadoes and with good reason.
Superb writing and the shape is scary!

Thats right Karla, send that out when I am high, I can barely read when I am sober, let alone read something that spins like a tornado any other time...it is a fine read though, scary enough to make me not want to ever witness the power of that part of Nature...Peace thru Underground Shelters, Ed & Rufuz

Excellent write and neat form, Karla. I'm here with a broken finger, but here, nonetheless. I hope you are well and are surviving the heat. It's humid and sweltering here today. Keep up the great writes.
(((((((HUGS)))))) and Love,

Very crafty, Karla! I have always wanted to do something like this too with words, but somehow, everything I writed begins from the left...unless I quote it center, then it moves to center; but cannot do a stylish one like this.

Creative indeed and a good write.
