Mushroom Cloud Mania
this is not a happy poem .. sadly, this is just a fact of life ..
Don’t you all think it’s amazing
the lessons we
each learn today, shall likely be
re-learnt again,
over and over, by folk not yet
even conceived ..
That is of course, assuming no
other crazy
acquires even more of a taste
for power
and they become, so bloody
reckless and order
some other poor bastard to
push the damn
button on maybe, just a whim
and a prayer ..
While hiding in a deep bunker
somewhere else
entirely and presumably, safe ..

Who births these despots? Were they ever loved as children? I can only think they never knew or felt loved and so it sent them on some sort of quest to find a place of belonging. On this quest they were spotted, scooped up and brainwashed. Methinks tis the time to brainwash the masses into love and peace ...muwahaha!
Sadly your words here ring all to true. What a mulberry Bush it is we all dance around. Hold on! Here we go, Loopy Loo.
The world is run by too many mad men/women/themselves.
A sad but an extremely readable poem x
Your guess is as good as mine, if not better Tina .. Thanks for checking in ma'am :) x
A tad chilling in places and needs to be to get any message over with concerns as these Nev.
There is a book out there I read as a kid called Overkill and dealt with 'The Bomb' being dropped and its after effects, it is a shame these total fruitcakes who hold the power clearly have never read it.
And some loonytunes out there right now believe a war were sides are throwing nukes at each other is winnable.
China for example, would due to superior numbers, maybe role the dice and hope to rule all among the ruins.
And there are things called revenge nukes, which would launch from hidden silo's years/decades later, just when things seem to be once again going peachy and if one of these rain on your parade bad boys is launched would give the receiving end an unexpected and very, very bad day.
No one or 'side' can truly win.
For it'll be back to the Stone Age.
Glad Iran hasn't got the bomb for Israel and the West will never let that happen.
Israel over the years handicapping development by bombing the shit out of their enriching process centers.
Look how they disrespect women and their handling (hanging without due legal process) of protesters, an evil regime.
They could however, easily cobble together a dirty bomb.
And that is the poor man's nuke and on every fanatical terrorist organisation's
wish list.
You've written a hard hitter of a poem Nev and its possible future implications by what human beings can inflict, or yearn to, on other human beings.
And to quote Churchill and Clancy-
It is the sum of all fears.
Your insight is amazing sir Shaun .. you do seem to have understood precisely where I was coming from .. everyone thought I was crazy when I first took to sleeping under the mattress with a crash helmet on and one eye open .. now tho' I seem to have started a trend .. catch you on my return mate ..
