The poem is based on the 2016 film Shin Godzilla, where Godzilla, theorized to originally be a frilled shark, consumed the radioactive wastes dumped into the ocean and turned into a mutating abomination that destroyed everything in its path. However, it had no malicious intent, it was acting purely on instinct, and was in excruciating pain from all the mutating and radiation in its own body. It is described as the vessel of God, punishing humanity for its sins, that being the dumping of nuclear waste into the sea. It destroyed Tokyo, killed many people, and was the "villain" that brought together the people of Japan, who united against a common foe. 
This song captures the whole thing from the human perspective while still showing sympathy to Godzilla.

Heavily inspired by "Persecution of the Masses" by Shiro Sagisu, feedback would be much appreciated :}
