It’s newly clear
that nuclear power
carries more threat
than possibilities.
It’s the cloud
that cloaks the darkest hour --
a storm stored in faulty facilities.
Let’s let alone
the lunatic notions
like a limited annihilation;
look what we’ve done to our earth and oceans:
Dumped canisters leak abomination --
permanent pollution –
danger that stays --
half-lives upwards of twenty thousand years --
a gift of garbage, spewing gamma rays --
a poor present that never disappears --
perpetrated upon our progeny
and our planet’s total biogeny.
