Lemmings Into The Sea
How to watch an atomic blast?
From 200 miles away, hands over closed eyes.
Even then, light is so intense
you see all the bones in your hand.
Within miles of epicenter, everything vaporizes.
You are ash in atomized flash.
Lucky you, slowly drifting to radiated earth
radioactive fallout - atomized out of it now.
Winds over 500 miles an hour
hurl buildings bodies through air.
Those in shelters are pressure-cooked
by giant incinerating fire storms.
Bacteria, from millions of unburied dead,
produce all manner of admirable epidemics.
Your immune system - ruined by radiation
you are at merciless mercy of horrific plagues.
The luckless living envy the ashen dead.
Much as dedicated doctors
would like to help
you in this, your hour of agony,
they will not be alive.
City, health workers, medical supplies,
do not exist! Only
molten memories of a bygone time.
Forget it all, speak of neutered now
in safe terminology of science,
United Nations comfort us now.
Ostrich head in sand man
I see only apocalyptic apathy,
in your ironic terms now.
Ours is an unprecedented age
we witness surgical agony of birth,
on a tightrope, with repercussions echoing
to doomed depths of oblivion.
Outstripped evolutionally morally
in a new sociology we grapple
with conflicting split emotions,
by virtue of new trinity necessity.
Peacemaker Missile? Hitting multiple targets
in same guideable instant of misguided time.
Enhanced Radiation Warhead leaves buildings intact
kills only targeted metropolis people.
Warfare finally in regimented step
with the jaundice judicial process
which places property and wealth
above undervalued human life.
M.A.D. not meaning insane
but Mutual Assured Destruction.
20 megatons a bomb equals a thousand Hiroshima’s.
Plus one Trident submarine, carries 24 missiles,
with 408 warheads like a thousand destroying suns?
Nitrous oxides
from a fraction of man’s
nuclear stockpiles
would destroy,
earth’s critical filter.
Children live near meltdown,
Atomic Power Plants,
building radioactive sandcastles.
Play in contaminated dirt die young
must be the new nuclear flu.
Dump lethal waste in dying sea
it is only lethal radioactive waste
for a quarter million, half life years?
And cast concrete blocks might last
200 hardened years possibly?
I want to grow up not blow up
scribbled on the wall in crayon.
Who is going to kill
a million dollar a minute industry?
Unintelligible.
The Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima, August 6,1945 was potentially possible, after the Manhattan Project produced the first three viable weapons. The Trinity Test, July 16,1945, was the successful ground based test of Gadget; a plutonium bomb, atop a 100-foot tower, in the Jornado del Muerto Valley in New Mexico.

Radiation Spewing Into The Sea
Unbelievable is Rachael Harvey
reporting for the BBC World News
who thinks radiation spewing
into the sea off the island of Honshū
from the number two nuclear reactor
at crippled Fukushima is good news.
Reminiscent of when Zeinab Badawi
reporting live on earthquake tsunami
devastation said present death toll is
five might rise but dark horror wave
witnessed foretold desolation death
mind not wanted faced acknowledged.
Quicker safer to find contain leakages
reducing contamination exposure
to nuclear hazards for at risk environs
would be to use a Geiger Counter
do you think with Geiger-Mueller
(G-M) Tube or Probe to fast measure
for rapid radiation interactive detection
or use a Portable Multichannel Analyzer,
Ionization (Ion) Chamber, Radon Detectors,
MicroR Meter with Sodium Iodide Detector,
or fast find leak with a Neutron REM Meter
with Proportional Counter spot leaky reactor.
Breach must have been high-level radiation
initially or why was ALARA not achieved?
Standard desirable procedure keep radiation
exposure (as low as reasonably achievable) .
Employ time distance shielding techniques.
Plan work before entering the radiation field.
Reading instructions by torch light at source
radiation leak reactor lacks professionalism.
No efficient plan inspires vote no confidence.
Kamikaze plant workers attempting repairs
exposed time critical in lethal radiation field
emergency training work quickly efficiently.
Ground zero work square root source distance
contamination radioactive atoms is deposited
on materials clothing externally contaminated
not breathed in on skin internally contaminated
highly penetrating electromagnetic radiation is

lucky Nagasaki 'Little Boy' bomb dropped on
Hiroshima was uranium-235a half-life of 700
million years regardless of half life concentrated
leaking nuclear waste wants to death deal you
personally date a cape take you permanently out
scary not really each year about 20 tonnes
of weapons military-grade plutonium is still
by-product produced in your nuclear power
industry its yours because consequences are
global extermination hit a few with meteors
rockets watch mountain radiation they spew
also believe not disinformation lie nuclear
power plants do not produce weapons grade

Who Is With The Bomb?
Where is it?
It is over here! !
Where is it?
It is over there! !
It has occured again and,
Who is with the bomb?
It is over here an there and,
Who is playing with the bomb?
It has destroyed many and,
It is still destroying us daily;
But, who is with the bomb?
Right from creation till now,
We have been destroying ourselves!
With bombs here and there;
But, when are we going to learn?
We do advance on in life but,
We still have the bombs in our hands;
Who really is with the bomb today? !
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb! ! !
With the atomic bombs alike to kill us all;
Now, the nuclear race is at hand.
Who is with the bomb?
With arsenals and nuclear war heads;
After two thousand years of history,
We still cannot learn from our mistakes.
Here and there with the manufacturing plants,
We still go to conferences thinking of stopping it;
But, should we have no fear of the Atomic Energy? !
A nuclear rat-race,
The arm-race of weapons!
Two thousand years of history could not be wiped away.

Nuclear Buffets
Hydrogen weapons and wars!
But humanity is the key to life;
And forever never ends from today.
Before and after the atomic bomb,
We are now deeper into the dark than before;
And with atomic coctails and nuclear buffets!
Oh this energy hungry world! !
You are like the bride-price of the virgins;
And like the atom being split in 1938.
Compassion, kindness, patience, longsuffering and mercy;
You are the first one to do it but,
The parable of the talents took away the righteous fruits of your love.
Of a rock cut out without hands and of your atomic coctails,
And from within and without with your nuclear buffets;
But this is like the last ruling power on earth at this time around.
A family starts with a marriage so you must not beak up your vows,
But life is like informing the people with your calling;
But this project also came out of Manhattan.
To remember the 6th of August 1945 and to see the acts of bombs!
But the dishonest people around us are the Babylonians;
For lamentation and bitter weeping are now on our faces.
Atomic bombs and nuclear buffets,
When will this Babylonian system stop?
For the wars had never put us into better shapes.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki Remembered
66 years ago the atomic bomb blasted
below the heads of those in these towns.
How many hundreds, yes, how many thousands
were left to die, consumed by man-made fire?
66 years ago, the incredible showed its face
that death by hundreds or by thousands
be decreed by man, that the green land
and waters should stand barren and poisoned.
Never again should another atomic bomb
be blasted on another town or towns!
Never again should another Nagasaki
and Hiroshima be doomed to atomic curse!
But let their story be told to generations
Let the ashes of the dead float in the seas
and rivers, an eternal reminder of human fault.
Let this story be remembered and retold.

Nuclear Explosion At Fukushima Nuclear Reactor No.3
by March 28 2011 plutonium
had been detected in soil at
five locations at Fukushima Power Plant
operators at Fukushima nuclear complex
believed plutonium had been discharged
from exposed disintegrating fuel rods
damaged post March 11 no explosions
post devastating earthquake tsunami
plutonium citizens is a silvery-grey metal
that becomes yellowish when exposed
to air solid under normal conditions
chemically reactive radio reactive
but not desired in your reception area
therefore imagine concern when
“yellow rain” seen in Kanto region
surrounding Tokyo supposedly caused
by pollen not radioactive materials
as many Japanese residents feared
Meteorological Agency publicly said
an intellect would think not pollen experts
plutonium at least 15 different isotopes
all are radioactive most common ones
are Pu-238, Pu-239, Pu-240 and Pu-238
a half-life of 87.7 years not as scary
as Plutonium-239 a half-life of 24,100 years
Pu-240 has a half-life 6,560 years
220 km northeast of central Tokyo
according to Environment Ministry
large amounts of air-borne pollen
were seen in downwind Kanto region?
pollen fell with rain Wednesday
do you wonder why ‘concerned’
citizens who reported strange yellowish
residue had never before experienced
a rainfall that contained mystery pollen?
do you wonder why news report referred
“to explosions at Fukushima No.1 Plant
leaving out March 14 ‘mushroom cloud’
explosion that occurred at Fukushima No.3? ”
‘Yellow Rain’ fell two days after March 14
explosion Nuclear reactor No.3 this reactor
contains plutonium-uranium mixed oxide fuel
(MOX) , ‘deadliest substance known to man
which is extremely difficult to detect so lie lie
tell me I spew but not from catchy nuclear flu
I watched that blast I knew what you would do
two weeks post March 11 Japan 9.0 earthquake
tsunami Prime Minister Naoto Kan spoke
“The situation continues to be highly grave and
serious, and we must remain on high alert, ” and
“The burden (of the disaster) should not fall only
on the shoulders of individuals and their families,
but should be borne by the nation as a whole.”
I fear this prophecy I fear new disaster nuclear flu
plants grow in contaminated soil absorb plutonium
Japanese Nuclear Plant Reactor Core Breached
no mention of types of radioactivity released
Japanese nuclear crisis relax damaged nuclear
reactors are venting smoke vapour but no
mention of exact isotopes now being emitted
plutonium fuel melted inside core being vented
out explosion broke containment shield we have
a quarter of a tonne additional plutonium in reactor
radioactive releases containing plutonium Pandora
your box is open so where to dump radioactive slag
horror is now deal with it slight of hand pretend
to carry radioactive water out to sea in barges
which you could pump straight into sea safely
hide slag fuel rods under water in viewed barges
dump hot load into an oceanic trench case closed
no I shall decline fish for a while steamed over
nuclear pile prophecy a quarter of the fish died
well half earth bleach coral reefs are already dead

Shonin
These eyes have seen the fire from the sky
I felt the heat a thousand clicks away
At first no screams, just people turned to shadows
A sunburst touched to earth one fatal day.
These eyes have seen my City turned to ashes
I have heard her women sobbing in despair
I stood alone amidst my city dying
No God above to whom I’d make a prayer..
And now I stand before a Buddhist temple
A different city and a river view.
This city seems most beautiful and vibrant
Hiroshima what has become of you?
The historic statue of Shinran Shonin, founder of the Judo Shinshu school of Buddhism, now stands in front of the New York Buddhist Church on Riverside Drive in New York City.. This statue of Shinran Shonin survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, in which 150,000 people died, and 90 percent of the buildings in the city collapsed or burned.

Nobody even dared him
Nobody even dared him
but Harry S Truman gave the command
to dropp two atomic bombs
in quick succession
while relaxing in his lounge chair
and the Enola Gay flew away
while Harry played with his grandchildren
to far off Hiroshima
and another bomber went to Nagasaki
and the people of those cities
were no longer there
had been obliterated in two blasts
with the intensity of exploding suns
with mushroom clouds rising in the air
right into the upper atmosphere
and two hundred and forty thousand
men, women and children
had been evaporated, shot to bits,
fried and incinerated
and those that remained were contaminated
with gamma radiation and suffered terribly
from the effects of it
and poor Harry did not know
how to use a rifle nor a gun
to win a decent war
and thought that dropping atomic bombs
would be great fun, displaying American power
to the world, with weapons
incinerating like the sun
and would greatly retaliate the losses
at Pearl Harbour
and by ordering it became a mass murderer.

Tepco Trying To Fix Cracks In Their Nuclear Reactor
Tepco reported “high levels of radioactive substances
in water that leaked from a hole near the reactor
leading to the sea” tepco tokyo electric power co
nuclear power plant in Japan multi radioactive breaches
advancing half a league, half a league, half a league
onward, all into the Pacific Ocean sweeps
nuclear radiation, but now we have permission to
pump 10,000 tons of problem only oh so slightly
radioactive water slightly radioactive water
hardly inspiring with detailed scientific accuracy
oh must be all okay then a little arsenic with your tea
how about a nice invigorating swim why dismayed
not tho’ the public knew scientists had blundered
public not to make reply public not to reason why
Tepco said it had detected cracks in an 8-inch hole
of concrete that holds power cables close to reactor
unit 2 the one serving up nuclear stew for me for you
Tepco is trying to fix the hole in their nuclear reactor
this might explain repeated high levels of radioactivity
found in offshore sea water but then again it might not
it might be coming from oh any of many plant cracks
using coloured dyes we try to track leak radioactivity
first we pour in concrete to plug the hole but no
concrete will not dry in all that accumulated water
next we try paper mashe not paste water powder
we resort to using newspaper and sawdust as we try
to block pipes using a polymer mixed shredded paper
and sawdust to try to close off pipes through which
water has flowed into a cracked Fukushima concrete pit
at the Daiichi plant from where it has run into the sea
yes pouring polymeric powder, sawdust, newspaper
anything things they could think of to clog up holes
heroic efforts made by nuclear safety agency experts
brains clogging up holes while all the world wonder’d
risking their lives nuclear workers theirs but to do or die
contaminated seawater shows illegal radiation levels at
4,000 times the legal level with no difference in amount
of water running out after they poured cement into the pit
Tepco needs to take steps to stop leaks once and for all
is stating the obvious at beleaguered nuclear power plant
battles with a radioactive water leak into the Pacific but
one regional problem in expected season of mega quakes

When youre feeling inside out and insecure,

When all lifes daily worrieshurry through your head.
You dont want to even get up.
You just lie around in bed.
When you feel you just cant take it anymore
And you wonder what on earth it is all foryour love lifes like a war zone

just remember that you standing on a planet thats evolving,revolving at 900
Miles an hour.its orbiting at 19 miles a second, so its reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day.
In an outer spiral orb, at 40,000 miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the milky way
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
Its a 100,000 light years side to side
It bulges in the middle 16,000 light years thick,
But out by us its just 3,000 light years wide.
Were 30,000 light years from galactic central point.
We go round every 200,000,000 years.
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.
Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whiz
As fast as it can go, the speed of light you know, 12,000,000 miles a minute,
And thats the fastest speed there is!
So, remember when youre feeling very small and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth.
And pray that theres intelligent life somewhere up in space,
cause Im afraid that weve been cheated here on earth.

Atomic War
War!
The final ending to fights and control of others,
War!
Is war,
And comes with,
Such grave situations,
Of:
Victims first,
That brings in armed forces,
To defend and free,
Those,
That are oppressed and held down,
In suppression to others of nations,
Or,
Controller of peoples,
For:
Wanting their resources,
For their own nations,
Wants and needs,
And power and greed.
For,
Freedom comes with a price,
When freedom is denied or taken,
From people,
Of deprived nations,
Where no freedom reigns,
For,
Fighting for freedom,
Causes,
So much death,
And leaves places in ruins,
Fighting for freedom,
Comes with such a heavy price,
War!
War breaks out,
And soldiers,
Of,
Hired guns become,
Guards of borders,
And,
Settlers of issues,
To protect and guard,
The people,
The places of war,
War!
Caused by,
The disputes of control,
While,
Up in the skies,
The skies so far above,
Where,
Planes and jet fighters.
Have,
Atomic control,
And when ordered,
It is activated,
Activated by nuclear waves,
Of radio transmissions,
Sent to set frequency controlled,
Activated by nuclear waves,
Of nuclear fusion,
Of man made nuclear,
With,
Mercury and patens,
Designed to,
Activate the nuclear physics,
Of,
Atom bombs,
Atomic War!
War!
Nowadays,
Atomic war,
Is,
The final frontier of ending what cannot be stop.
Supremacy on peoples,
When one kind wants to be just,
That kind,
And forcing assilimation,
On other nations,
So,
All look like,
And be like,
What they are,
And from,
So,
Those that cry freedom,
In their right,
For,
Freedom in choice,
Must leave,
Or,
Be destroyed,
In their own homeland,
By,
Genocides!
That,
Cause,
War!
Everywhere,
You look these days,
And everywhere,
You read of past history,
There is a truth,
In all the nations,
That just want,
What they want,
Regardless,
Of the other nations,
Just like in,
World War 2,
Which,
Brought about,
That first bang,
Of that,
First,
Atomic bomb,
The one launched,
That,
Hit Japan, ,
By,
The push of a button,
So many still remember,
The ending of,
World War 2,
Now,
Today,
Its what it is all about,
Nuclear war,
And so many that say it,
War!

Now,
Take a look at the world today,
Even,
Our waters and nature is disturbed,
Just like us all,
In races,
Of nations,
And,
Civilisations,
Today in Science,
They are all told,
To get more nuclear!
More nuclear in physics,
For war pays,
And the spoils of war?
Is another nations gain,
So,
In the results,
The People,
The Places,
The Planet,
All suffer,
Where,
Soon,
All will know,
Not to say this,
Or not to say that,
For leaders of nations,
Have proven to us lately,
That all that is said,
And all that is done,
Cannot be unsaid,
Cannot be undone,
However,
It is what is causing,

War all over the power seeking world.

Earthquakes Unleash Nuclear Rain
in an earthquake
nuclear power plants
are going to sway
relax if you like
your nuclear plant has not
been hit today
but on this be clear
an unprecedented season
vast global earthquakes
are coming for you
a season of nuclear flu
is sweeping over horizon
wave of radiation leaks
going atmospheric will rain
earthquake waves sweeping erupting
nuclear power security codes creaking
nuclear power rods radioactive rattling
water protective coolant water leaking
nuclear power rods mass now melting
beware devastating nuclear flu coming
A Great Season
of earthquakes
is now coming.
The last Christian
global revivals
before the rapture
before tribulation
before the second
coming is coming.

Living in Hiroshima
A morning in Hiroshima
In August of the year
I walk towards a tower
with battered walls and naked steel.
The dome is open to the sky
The walls have crumbled down
All else around had been laid waste
This was the zero ground.
In that river there were bodies
burned beyond recall.
Thousands dead around here
And scarce a standing wall
An involuntary Shiva
A chill creeps down my spine
One bomb destroyed this city
A monster born of mind..
We gather to remember-
The mayor says some words
Silence, a bell ringing,
sounds a warning to this world.
If the destroyer comes again
With his thousand suns
We'll die in our Hiroshimas
with Victory for none.

Electric Funeral
Reflex in the sky warn you you're gonna die
Storm coming, you'd better hide from the atomic tide
Flashes in the sky turns houses into sties
Turns people into clay, radiation minds decay
Robot minds of robot slaves
lead them to atomic rage
plastic flowers, melting sun,
fading moon falls upon
dying world of radiation,
victims of mad frustration
Burning globe of oxy'n fire,
like electric funeral pyre
Buildings crashing down to a cracking ground
Rivers turn to wood, ice melting to flood
Earth lies in death bed, clouds cry water dead
Tearing life away, here's the burning pay
Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral
And so in the sky shines the electric eye
supernatural king takes earth under his wing
Heaven's golden chorus sings,
Hell's angels flap their wings
Evil souls fall to Hell, ever trapped in burning cells!
