Weapons of Mass Destruction

The world has produced
weapons of mass destruction
to annihilate

A new invention
science has contributed
to humanity

For the sole purpose
of destroying and killing
enemies of states

Such a cruel act
of ending life in one sweep
of nuclear bomb

Man is an idiot
that never learns his lessons
history has taught

From Hiroshima
to Nagasaki bombing
are lessons of war

Is life valuable?
a midst this vast destruction
there's no hope to life
