110. The Unexpected

by E. - 9th grader - Harrison, Arkansas

People thought Katrina
would miss her mark

When she was over
Most people were in difficult positions

People went out to see what damage
She left behind for them to clean

A boy lost his home he didn’t know what to do
without his mother, sister, brother, or father

A woman wouldn’t have anyone to keep her company
Her husband died of cancer, with flies and people to smell the
death of him and others that died as well

Why couldn’t some of the people leave when they had a chance to, instead of 710 people to die for a total?
