Just Before The Demonia Hurricane Poem by Gert Strydom

Just before the Demonia hurricane
clouds in Durban
darkened the whole sky
and horizon.

I saw black water stretching out
with just here and there
‘a light dancing
on the surface of the sea.

Like a giant water monitor
that prepares to shatter
with its tail
the sea hissed menacing
about the coming chaos
and with rain and giant waves
I knew that destiny
somewhere else is hitting people mercilessly
and are even killing some.
