Recovery

Everyone awaited the anticipated storm Sunday night

No patience, so when it didn’t arrive we took it light
Typical New Yorkers showing pride when things get rocky
Figuring it will be some nasty rain making things sloppy
Hyped cause of days off from work,
damn we’re cocky.
People making comparisons to the storm of Summer 2011
Making predictions like a Bible being read by a reverend
Forgetting that the ultimate power that be resides in Heaven
It’s his decision on the impact and who to sacrifice
More important than Santa’s list about who’s naughty or nice
He gave us Free Will along with life
Like the man in the back of news cameras on a Jet Ski
Or the cars and deaths impacted by a tree
Whoever thought you could Canoe in New York City?
Those unaffected call it crazy
Those impacted call it a travesty.
Many home without power
Facts proven by texts I received from peoples in Jersey & Staten Island
People are angry this is no time for violence
Only efforts of valiance
First responders, EMS, NYPD, FDNY compounded Monday we were hit hard by Sandy
I hope that they have an Action Plan A, B, & C
Making strides to put things back together
Beginning Tuesday once we got regular weather.
Too many clowns making jokes for the sake of laughter
But I know that adversity is the best test of character
Governor Christie in Jersey saying forget the elections
Only focusing on the future looking forward like the Jetsons
Obama leaving the campaign trail for this state of emergency
Taking Action with unlimited funding, another testament to his legacy
Impeccable timing cause we need leaders with compassion
Not racist, politicians whose ideas are fascist.
No trains, limited buses
This is no time for fussing Businesses and schools closed
Astronomic levels of water rose
Flooding train stations and streets
Overflowing the FDR with a never ending peak
Families on roofs, water just beneath their feet
Companies attempting to open using backup generators
Due to no power
Freezers & Refrigerators
Full of spoiled food smelling sour.
Somewhere along the lines this was written in the scriptures
Most didn’t believe til they say saw Instagram pictures
Those visions becoming fixtures
Upon one’s brain Hard to get them out like a bad stain
But no need to complain Cause it happened
My condolences to those affected
We won’t leave y’all neglected
Redman Style it’s “Time for some Action”
Thanksgiving approaching let’s make sure these families eat
On Christmas have a gift or two under the tree
Don’t turn your back & flee
If that’s your plan, say to yourself “What if that was me?”
Time to be more appreciative
Evaluate the way we live
Deviate from the negative
Increase the positive Turn the M upside down in the word Me
Think about We With a focus on humanity
Cause natural disasters don’t know colors
Only how to impact God’s children who are sisters & brothers
We won’t let the Devil eat, no poking us with his fork
I believe we will overcome adversity again, stand up NEW YORK!
