Revised Poem Stanza: The Southern Scourge by Julia A. Moore

Original Stanza:
Some people in delirium,
Have wandered from their home;
Have wandered to a vacant house,
And there have died alone,
With no kind friend to care for them,
Or close their dying eyes.
Oh God! In horrid misery
Hundreds of people died.

HORRIBLE right?

Now, on to the new and improved stanza....
Some people in delirium,
Have wandered from their home;
They've found themselves a vacant home,
A final resting place to die alone,
With no friends or family to sit with them as they depart,
Or close their eyes eerily open wide.
As families watched miserably,
Hundreds of people died.

-Tiarra, Peter, Yoon
