Flames, fire and smoked mushroom
in space, on earth, in water!
It was like the end of the world
for 220 thousand Japanese killed
and millions more
with life time radiation injuries.
A bloodied star exploded
over innocent people
for the lack of humanity
of the elected administration
of a country* as the way
to win power over all the world.
Now the remorse and the memory
will hopefully never allow
a bomb to be ignited and
will dig out the roots of hatred
of people against people.
May all human beings
wish that existing bombs and
factories of bombs be eliminated
from the planet...
* President Harry Truman, of the United States,
authorized the use of atom bomb against Japan.
The first atomic bomb was launched in
Hiroshima on August 6th 1945 and the
second in Nagasaki, August 9th 1945.
