Untamed heart
Evil and free,
Hurricane’s vengeance
Upon land and sea.

Demon possessed
Wreaks havoc and pain,
Amongst poor souls
Who are not to blame.

Villagers spew forth tears of mourn
Fear-ridden souls cry out,
No help for those who are not heard
Voice is king--there is no doubt.

Born from a sinister, malignant cloud
Was created to kill and maim,
Its evil eye is destined to slay
Innocence cannot the monster tame.
