The Disaster (as submitted to Highestwire)

The disaster, the fear, the loss that Katrina brought.
Never a long lived life again, no land, no home no nothing. Why didn't Bush help? Hearts broken, families ripped appart. Nothing to live for. Nothing to see or hear. Race was brought from Bush. Not kindness. Terrible news, awful sights. Let's not forget the time Katrina blew in.
