A Vision of Terror

Peace Poet on Jul 23, 2011

The devil of nuclear radiation torments not only Japan but other countries too.

If nothing is done to control

The devil of nuclear radiation will

Torment not only Japan

But other countries too.

Radiation-muted Baby without arms and legs

In the midnight

Monstrous Superbaby wakes and weeps

O that her mother might recognize her!

Before the catastrophe the spirit of God was here

And it was gold-coloured

Now nuclear sadism dwells here

No trade, art, nor revenues

Only radiation-filled limbs and veins

Pale ghosts rejoice and are there

And where they are humanity is not there

O Lord, protect us from nuclear radiation

What has been

Is always present in future

We imagine the nuclear aftermath

And we fail to find a cure

This is our tragedy

Terrifying poem, man! It´s what I say, governments are to decide on whether something is good or not for us and we are there, idle, waiting what´s next to be thrown at us. They´ve lost their mind and we are taking it on! Thanks for sharing.

I used to feel interested in nuclear as it’s an interesting scientific field to be studied. But even though it’s interesting, unfortunately it’s too harmful for human lives..

You are right,it is the tragedy of human kind,,,to keep letting bad things happen, and not doing anything about them,as if there was no solution at all.

Hi there!
