“Fire storm and black rain and shadows in concrete”

haiku about fear of atomic war and love for glorious light of poetry 

mournful monk

haunted by hiroshima and nagasaki bombing

broken heart striving for peace

battle of somme and verdun repeated again

stability of peace is an illusion

poetry alone will survive
