Devine Wind

Devine Wind

Blowing after Midway
Heroes of the Empire
Trained, indoctrinated
Brave beyond belief
Rushed into action
Desperation measures
The Devine Wind
Blew itself out
With Fat Man
And Little Boy
The Devine Wind died
The last ditch efforts of
The Empire of the Rising Sun
Kamikaze!

Short but great

I loved it, brainwashed samuri led to their doom by false god's and warmonger general's.I think we blew it out for them though. Thank you

Thanks KZ

In blowing it out a lot of lives were lost, but a lot more saved. Glad you liked it. Respectfully, Rett: "Telling me Illegal Immigrants have a right to be here is like saying the burglar that breaks into your home, now has the right to live there with you." Rett

I wanted to cover the gist of it in as few words as possible. Glad to know it came across. Respectfully, Rett: "Telling me Illegal Immigrants have a right to be here is like saying the burglar that breaks into your home, now has the right to live there with you." Rett

Devine...

I enjoyed your poem Rett... Strong energy in it... But it also made me think of Devine, Texas. It can get very hot there in the Summertime ... including the Wind! But it's still lovely, to me. Thanks for sharing this poem; and for the memory. Raven
