I reach back into the war of minds and of children
the mushroom dialectic
scattered shards
of bodies across newsreels
to grow up in the bedroom
between the cold of pain
and death of mother
Hiroshima
books showed the aftermath
closed room
on the film
the other side
black skull faces stare
burned bone center to the camera
fire torched
in nomine patris
in nomine patris
Hiroshima
