'Twas first the ground that invariably with horror shook.
A mushrooming menace was born...
And the many lives it with impunity then took
Unimaginable scenes of devastation...
Amid the savagery, a world forced to look.
Permanent dismissal...
of the friendly neighbourhood cook.
Lying in tatters...
the remains of a priceless book.
Debris and black ash...
in the once bubbling brook.
Unanswered cries for help...
Images mirrored in pools of puke.
A disturbing moment in the history of man...
The use of...that nuke.
One sad day...
When insanity a few overtook!
