I became part of the ground as I lay as flat as possible in the drainage ditch while the tornado closed in on me. They say the winds were 90MPH+ -and I believe it. I was praying so loud I lost my voice. But even I couldn't hear me. As the wind speed lessened, I realized it was the eye of the storm easing along toward me -the worst was yet to come! While the eye of the storm was over me, the air, alive with electricity, was still as death itself. Then the wind started picking up again, blowing at 90MPH+. Or so they say, and I believe it. I was there. Flat as a squashed bug, but I was there. Praying so loud I lost my voice, but even I couldn't hear me. Now, when people call me lucky, I tell 'em THEY'RE the lucky one... lucky they weren't there.
