Missile - Tanka Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

Missile - Tanka

Rating: 4.2


A ruthless creation
A wild cobra that invades
The sea and the sky
Defeats the dark clouds and waves
Destroyer of lives and dreams.

Powerful expression against inhuman tendencies in war. The question is pertinent "What Science"?
