The computer-generated male voice droned on
about the number of Kansas tornadoes
per year, where they were,
and how many people had perished;
the computer-generated female voice
broke in now and then
to give ominous weather warnings,
over and over the cycle repeated--
the male spoke of facts,
the female:  possibilities.  

The still at the very center?
The vertigo-inducing outer ring?
Or maybe the made-up stories
of what lies between.
