You are
The runny piece
Of cheese
On hot day
In August
Approximately
One hundred years ago
That dropped
The atom bomb
In Nagasaki
And Hiroshima,
Japan, and
Killed Millions
of Innocent
Men, Women,
and Children.
And you’re not even sorry.

Well,
Time flies when you’re ending the world,
One idea at a time.

Uh oh. I feel pressured. The death of freedom of expression? An ode to Jude who lives in the cheese state? You didn't pay attention to what year we bombed Japan? A goodbye poem to W?
ReplyDeleteNope! I am aware that the bombing took place in 1945 but to clarify, the August in which the sun melted the cheese was many years before that. Come to think of it, still not quiet one hundred. But very close. I'll edit that now.
ReplyDeleteIt's a poem about the relationship between three people who probably never met, or if they did, only briefly. And those people are Salvador Dali, Albert Einstien, and President Dwight D Eisenhower.
Give up?
Oh no. I'm not giving up. Yet.....but for now, my brain is offline. Time to go meditate. :)
