Storm chasers

Pulled one over on our Mother

Nature-When we 'wise ones'

learned how to chart               and predict, guess and check

her moods                               and storms associated with wrath

and names,                              personalities,

alphabetically                          with indexes and eyes.

We behold

color coded paths

where weather may walk-

sirens and alerts follow us

In spite of-direction.

Now that is not good enough             -anymore.

Without footage,                     there-ness, like live streams

in microwaves, invisible proof for the eyes-

It never happened that way.
