The oncoming The human tragedy is not to learn from the past The world is in an uproar a nuclear war is coming The belief is by using a smaller bomb it will not be so bad So also, is the thinking of the enemy. Millions of people will be killed and nature already Devasted will collapse too. It appears to me that the coming tragedy is ordained That unknown forces will make it this way, it is uncanny That we blithely walk around with no care in the world As the Damocles sword has loosened from it ropes, and Is about to fall. What is left is scorched earth circling around the sun The seasons will come and go in in silence and we shall Not hear the joyous laughter of the young.
