Acoustic Torment


A vision in the sky 
Casting a shade on mother earth 
They know what it will bring 
But no belief - denying the truth 
Fleeing creatures everywhere 
Each possessed by tremendous fear 
Crying like tormented souls 
Wishing that they were never born 
A thud impact 
A raising mushroom cloud 
High pressure is filling the air 
A flash of fire is dragging life away

Nuclear warfare 

Sitting here in the cold 
Watching the drizzling snow 
Benumbed perceiving the fallout 
Looking at the wasteland 
You cannot see it 
You cannot feel it 
You cannot touch it 
But it could let you die 
You watch yourself and scare 
The hair is gone 
The skin is black 
The radiation is a torment 
A torture
