Analysis of The Storm



Why are the lights flickering
I think we are in a storm
The wifi has gone down
Fill up the bathtub, now
Everyone’s scared for their lives
The power is out, nobody can see
The power line is down
Sparks are flashing everywhere
Our sense of time is gone
Wind rushes through our ears
The storm took our roof
I wake up in the hospital
