![]() New MadridA Poem by Bo LanierWell
I love Tennessee, the mountains, the rivers and the valleys. Knoxville,
Chattanooga and Nashville. But Memphis is a disaster Waiting
to happen again like it did in the late 19th century when the New
Madrid first made its presence known. The Mississippi river Ran
backwards for days and days and Thousands of Indians and Pioneers
lost their lives and homes as the liberty bell tolled the hour. The
whole east coast felt its power! Heaven
have mercy on our souls because it is overdue to shake Things
up again! Only God knows when but it's destined to come Around
again... It seems
like not too many people are unaware of the NEW MADRID And
the devastation at hand or is it we are just too preoccupied with war and The
carrying on of the other lands well I don't know but I do know one thing for
sure history Has
a peculiar way of repeating its self. So let’s not be so quick to put this book
back on that Shelf.
Take care in all you do don't you know we are not promised Tomorrow
and the NEW MADRID is a bombshell about to split America into Could
be the gates of hell and we're all as good as screwed! © 2016 Bo Lanier |
