The Greatest Ever Game
lost
in the roar of steel dust
mortar paper and bone
merge with cascade
of flutter from skies
as megatons totter
earthward
screens afire
with sky-ripping missiles
amid thuds and blasts
a child clings
to her half-burnt doll
a streak of red
from her forehead
blends with tears
dribbles onto the beard
of her torpid father
earth leaps
mountains totter
God and Satan
loll on a couch
and watch
