Under the Mushroom Cloud

All Hate Breeds in the bed of Ignorance

Sheep cohorts by the seduction of fear

War drums beat to the sound of belligerence

Millions flock to the shepherd and adhere


Lovely dancing under the mushroom cloud

Sorrow sown with the lace of innocence

 Ashes and bodies build and overcrowd

Pride feeding the mouth of the arrogant


A fleeting glimpse of a sight so once pure

Shrouded in clouds of all wrath and winter

Silence conceives death and its allure

Pestilence and Famine grow as a blister


Foolish lines and borders established

Signs to warn and threaten those who dare cross

Ivory towers with gold and malice

Plaguing the land as if an albatross


If not one ounce of courage comes from one

Then all shall fall and thus all shall be done
