Baby, how’d you get so mean,
The way you beat on old Biloxi
And you’re drowning New Orleans
You the roughest woman
That this place ever seen
So tell me Miss Katrina
How’d you get so mean

With gustin’ winds of fury,
As the hateful waves just pound,
The water keeps arising
And the levy’s crumbling down
You took away my house
And you’re trying to take this town
And the water keeps arising
And the levy’s crumbling down

Never underestimate
a woman who’s been scorn
Don’t let her wrath come cross your path
Or you'll rue the day you born
I can’t find my family
And she’s trying to take this town
And the water keep arising
And the levy’s crumbling down [comments] => 3 [counter] => 174 [topic] => 43 [informant] => dc [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

It is an overly used topic, but you made it personal. I like it.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
