Red Death

As I bleed to death I remember a time of great saddness.

The couple wouldn't leave. They stayed with their 2 children and never left. When it hit, it was too late to leave. It was terrible. The 2 children never had a chance. They died instantly. The mother was more heartbroken than the father but the time for mourning was not quite safe yet. They had to fight for their own lives. Trying to escape the deadly cluthes of death. They finally found something to hold on too. They saw rotting dead bodies all around them but had to hold it together for each others sanity. Then out of nowhere she was struck. Something underneath her hit her so hard it broke her left leg. She was scared but could not feel a thing which made her even more scared. He felt as if he could not do anything to help her. It was like he was running towards her but she seemed to move further away the closer he got to her. He had a nervous breakdown. Having to lose his kids and now his wife was too much for him. Then out of nowhere he heard a helicopter. He shouted as loud as he could so that they could hear him. But they could not see them. He ripped off his blood soaked shirt and waved it in the air so that they could see them and finally they slowed down and helped them. His wife barely holding on he felt that now he can relax because help is here and they will help his wife. They began to fly again. His wife is now talking again but still is in tremendous pain. The helicopter begins to slow down. He looks outside the window and sees nothing but a small area of land with nobody there. He asks the pilot what are they doing?! But they do not answer him. They land and tells them they need to get off here but that they will return. The husband upset about this says no. He pleads with them to just take them somewhere his wife can be saved but they help them both of the helicopter and leave them there.


This story is part fiction. Somebody told me that a husband and wife were left on a bridge by the helicopter because of Hurricane Katrina. The wife died because they never came back/came back in time to help them. It's things like this that makes me believe that government waited too long to help the people of Louisiana. I hope the government is happy now about this. What did they expect when a Category 5 storm headed towards an area already below sea level would do?! It makes me fucking sick that I saw photos of the dead floating on top of the water and looters shooting. What has this become? Is their anything we can do? All the money and food in the world would not make this any better. Lives are ruined forever. And people are still dead and missing. This is why people should not underestimate the power of a hurricane. People say that they will "ride the storm out", but when the storm becomes too strong, it's too late.

Well I'm going to finish this post before I go out and start fighting people to get my anger out.
