I have one in Snow Monkey: "Lily."  Wasn't going to publish it after Katrina
since it's such a cartoon. (Lily hit over St Landry Parish, LA, where I
live. Gustav hit us as well. I don't yet have power and entire parish is
beat up pretty badly.) It might be in my next collection.

 

If anyone wants a copy of _For To_ which just came out, please send me your
address. (Anny, yours will come slow boat, etc.)

...got me to wondering about what poets have written about
hurricanes, not just ordinary storms.


Phillip Freneau and Alan Dugan come to mind, and Shakespeare.  Byron?
Rupert Brooke has a great seasickness poem.
