Tropical Event Horizon



aloha poets,
                     Tropical event horizon inspires today. Enjoy!


Boom Busts Gulf Coast

Oversee a clean-up hook a marsh grass
Float oil-soaked boom, Gulf Coast task
National Geospacial Intelligence drill
Gulf oil disaster now an oil boom spill

Boom in the reeds, boom on the beach
Tropical storm Bonnie didn't quite reach
Satellite photos oil sensitive estuary
Boom from the marsh, best you carry

Coastal development decades gone
Birds, snakes, shellfish in their swan song?
Blitzing sun now, snare boom with a pole
Gulf oil clean-up stick to the goal

Somewhere out there the pelicans fly
Over blue water and under watchful eye
Free beaches, marshes, all the Gulf Coast 
Return to the good life make us all boast
