Abstract
In this poem, the author explores feelings of loss and commitment in light of her visit to Joplin, Missouri, in 2011 after an EF-5 tornado levelled much of the town, killing 161 people. She draws on autoethnographic methods and a critical pedagogy lens to re-envision her role as a social scientist trying to understand the complexity of weather disasters.
