Flying machines
remind me
of Pearl Harbor,
of Little Boy and Fat Man,
of Twin Towers and Aleppo
of necropolis everywhere,
of history repeating itself.
Sky-path is for the birds
and innocence only.
* On August 6, the U.S. dropped a uranium gun-type (Little Boy) bomb on Hiroshima, and American President Harry S. Truman called for Japan’s surrender, warning it to “expect a rain of ruin from the air, the like of which has never been seen on this earth.” Three days later, on August 9, a plutonium implosion-type (Fat Man) bomb was dropped on Nagasaki.
