Analysis of Neil mckenzie
"I am called Ian"
It was born off the coast of Florida...
He came alive to create death and destruction...
A demon who rose up so we can hear him scream...
A Hurricane like no other, what a horrible dream...
It was a huge predator who came to take a bite out of man...
It growled, hissed and moaned to show us his evil plan...
Buildings, restaurants were destroyed with the pier...
The wraith of Mother Nature's depth was still unclear...
Boats were shuffled then stacked this is true...
They were then thrown like dice...
It began to look like a cat playing with mice...
The humanity of man its the only thing that kept us together...
Special thanks to the Cajun Navy...
The rescue crews that risked their lives to reunite families and helped them stay alive...
The Salvation Army and the Red Cross were there...
They witnessed the water and fire only growing higher and higher...
It did this to satisfy the beast treacherous desire...
Why we were cursed, it wasn't clear...
The Devil rose up to spread more fear...
