A sadly lyrical, exceptionally word-related composition, Carolyn. Love the visuals and how the harsh 'k' and intermediate 'g' sounds which call attention to a world-wide 'atmosphere', are smothered in the 'eses' sinuous absorbtion of disgust with a world totally out of control.

This reminds me of my next door neighbor that constantly puffed on a cigarette and the smoke was so thick that it set off his smoke detector.

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
