Gods Bomb

Quote -
‘I realize the tragic significance of the atomic bomb ... It is an awful responsibility which has come to us ... We thank God that it has come to us, instead of to our enemies; and we pray that He may guide us to use it in His ways and for His purposes.’

President Harry S. Truman, August 9, 1945

Our father who’s not in heaven
Enola be thy name
Thy kingdom nuked
Those people cooked
In Hiroshima as were are
In Nagasaki
Give survivors this day
A daily dose
Forgive them their deformities
As we forgive ourselves for their deformities
Lead us not into compassion
We’ve delivered the evil
For thine is the H-bomb
The blast and the fallout
For ever
Amen
