hybrid storm
hot then cold
fast wind churning slow
terrible wild
passing to mild
leaves a mess
of mixed debris
schadenfreude isn't right
something luckier
something sadder
and it matters

Indeed, it does matter. Keep fighting the good fight, Heidi!
A four-day weekend, plus an extra hour for Daylight Saving Time! Seems luxurious, doesn't it?
I like "terrible wild, passing to mild."
It sure did leave a mess. Thanks for this.
Heidi- I love the sound of the words in your poem and the mixture of emotions. I'm feeling that way about the election too. I usually have my mind made up by now, but this time around, my husband has been laid off so long... Time is running out. I have to decide.
Heidi, I love this mix of politics (via image) and storm (via text). A most excellent match-up.
