War really sucks


Death in a can

Soldiers suit up
Start your engines

In the air
Approaching destination

Goggles on
Start the countdown

Then...

The moment of truth
The drop

Even before the impact
High in the air

The explosion
Rocked the bowels of the Earth

BOOM

Lives destroyed
Blown away

Without their consent
Little did they know

Of the death in a can
In the skies above Hiroshima

Edna Sweetlove
Very good. The Americans who slaughtered hundreds of thousands should be ashamed of themselves. But they aren't. They are proud of their arrogance and crime. But their time came on 9/11 and they didn't laugh so much then. And what joys may the future hold?
