I know
Weapons testing
In the morning.
Tomorrow is too far away.
Maybe just one
Or maybe two
Sticks of that dynamite today.
Kaboom
With a flash
Bits of debris fall like rain
See him
A sharp slap
He says to me "Explain."
How can I
When I
Don't know why myself, although
What I know
It's simply
Beautiful, while head to toe
In the dust
In the smoke
Dust falling like snow.
Delicate.
I don't know
Why I had to do it then
I do know
So do they
I'll always do it again.
Oh my
They are
So furious with my actions, that
For a week
No kaboom
I destroyed the badger habitat.
I guess I
deserve it.
No more weapons testing for me.
Sit alone
In my bunk.
Look ashamedly at my feet.
I didn't mean to
I never mean to
Everybody's angry or scared, scared
Of the crazy one
With the scar, the grin
I know what they say, and when I cared
To listen
I heard them
But they didn't see me as I stared.
An outcast.
I don't know
Why I had to do it then
I do know
So do they
I'll always do it again.
So what did you think? Should I do more? Or should I work on something else? Please let me know.
