Storm Before the Storm by Chris Sorrenti
Everybody and their dog
are out shopping today
almost as bad as the Christmas rush
before that first snowflake hits the ground
Even the salt trucks are out early
getting a head start
a new mayor, nearly new council
to battle the elements from city hall
Rink of Dreams soon gonna need
a good shoveling
J and I have enough food
and everything else for that matter
to feed a small army
even Eartha is stocked up
while I play telephone and email tag
with the Humane Society
like the medical system, and us all
overwhelmed
