Sonnet 72 -- Bad Sonnet on the Hurrican

I took a drive to see what I could see

And yes, we are indeed in luck today

Branches, trash cans, and leaves were broken free

Some errant Angel must have come my way

Three big trees down on Watchung Avenue

I have no taste for revelry tonight

Halloween, we will not be having you

We have Mother Nature to give us fright

But still, I am pleased with my Governor

And am moved by American courage

Undefeated by the bitch Sandy’s roar

We clean ourselves up and turn the damned page

And pray that we can heed the warning

And stop the madness of global warming
