Twisted Sisters

 




Twisted sisters,

roll and rumble

kissing Kansas skies;

 

ferocity's growth lays

      hidden ~

                shaded by

dogwood-dusted clouds.

 

Sadistic siren wails

as twin bitches touch down -

 

and

 

soprano meets baritone

in a desperate duet

of melodic chaos sung.

 

Horrific howls echoes

in speeding spirals

that exceed

three hundred miles per hour.

 

Concrete creations uprooted,

   sucked in,

           spun,

               shifted,

                    tossed

               and replanted in

neighboring town's backyard.

 

Diabolical devastation ran rampant

down undetermined paths;

leveling lives,

           scaring souls,

                &

                infecting minds with

life long nightmares

         of a doubled

                 category five

                           on the Fujita scale.

    This is an excellent piece mummy, you've described them so well in such an interesting way so that it's not a geography lesson.
    Love you,
    Your Lunar Angel

    Holy hell, Bel [no rhyme intended]. I didn't think it would be about tornadoes when I opened this write. Brilliantly written though! Very nicely written, girl. I agree with Heidi, this is incredible. Nicely done. Keep up the good work.

    Love always,
    Kristen ♥

    WOW....

    It took natural disaster for the lioness to stretch and wake...

    THIS IS INCREDIBLE....

    Right down to the way you formed your stanzas...one in a cyclone...others reminding me of disarray...

    Amazing lady...

    Glad to see you writing a fresh write.

    xo

    wow, wonderful write mum. The write perfectly fits tornadoes and you do it so beautifully and like they have a mind of their own also. Very powerful.

    Oh It is so nice to see you back. And with such a powerful voice.

    I wasn't sure what "Twisted Sisters" would hold (was almost afraid i'd find Dee Snyder! )

    Coming from the midwest I've been fortunate to never experience one. But your words send shivers up my spine in a much nucer way then the tornado sirens do!

    mmm mmm

    Welcome back!
