[bodytext] => Alluminium birds layed eggs of death,
Causing wirlwinds of fire,sucking lifes breathe, Phorospherous exploded and rained all around, Ate deep into flesh,as victims writhed on the ground, Charcoaled bodies crumbled when trod, Ankle deep in human sludge which bubbled thru sod. Road surfaces blistered and melted with heat, The poor devils running caught fire from thier feet, Dead everywhere,babies,so many babies, Death on earth,right there in hades, Everything burned including pushchairs and prams, Asphyxiated passengers sat still on the trams. Allied fighters roared down the streets, Strafing refugees fleeing from the heat, A bubbling mess was all that was left, As they cowered in basements of air bereft, A sickly sweet stench of roast in the air, As the flames licked higher,eating the air. The zoo was hit and the animals fled, But some were maimed and left for dead, The big cat inspector with his merciful gun, Made the rounds,so they could,nt run, Several days after,a gorilla was found, Drinking petrol,its thirst to drowned. People sought refuge away in the park, But then later on,bombs fell thru the dark, Two sisters fifteen and eleven were helping each other, Trying to find thier nine year old brother, Building interiors collapsed in on themselves, All that was left,were the smouldering shells. Generations wiped out in that molten mire, To burn forever in hells cauldron of fire, Dresden 1945 there was no military target, But the victims who survived will never forget, I stop and wonder from time to time, The bombing of Dresden,was that not a war crime?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
