when the levee breaks
Wednesday, September 07, 2005
What can you say about the catastrophe that Hurricance Katrina left in her wake? Maybe you could say that everyone with a shred of sense in their head wouldn't live in a city below sea level.
Maybe.
But the time for stupid location decisions is long over.
Time for those who made it out to pick themselves up and move on.
Time for the stragglers still in that hell that was once a city to pack it up and walk away. Before they get forced out by the few soldiers that didn't get sent over to another country to keep oil safe for democracy.
I believe Robert Plant and the boys put it best in one of my all time favourite Zepppelin songs:
Maybe.

I believe Robert Plant and the boys put it best in one of my all time favourite Zepppelin songs:
If it keeps on rainin’, levee’s goin’ to break,
If it keeps on rainin’, levee’s goin’ to break,
When the levee breaks I’ll have no place to stay.
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,
Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan Cryin’ won’t help you, prayin’ won’t do you no good,
Now, cryin’ won’t help you, prayin’ won’t do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move
