Image for the poem Black Rain

Black Rain

(Inspired by Monsters and Men's song 'Black Water' and the phenomenon of radioactive 'black rain' that is a result of a nuclear bomb)
 
From the sea  
All creatures  
Came to be  
Including you  
And me  

If someday  
A doomsday  
Wipes away  
The disease  
Of humanity  
 
Black rain will wash away  
Of what we became  
And once again  
From the depths  
Of the great sea  
 
Will emerge new beauty  
A better life that is  
Far more deserving  
Than we

Author's Note
Author's notes:
The above poem was inspired by Monsters and Men's song Black Water and the phenomena of Black rain that is a byproduct of a nuclear bomb. After the attack on Hiroshima, many miles away, people were soaked by radioactive Black Rain that poisoned all killing many.
I the song Black Water, a woman sings how she was revitalized by the sea. Maybe someday, this will come true for all of humanity.
