Our Nuclear Family

I.B. Rad

1. Nuclear Proliferation

Once I held nuclear proliferation
an unmitigated disaster
but now I’ve begun to appreciate
growing nuclear parity’s just
confirmation of our humanity,
for what better antidote to “global warming”
than “nuclear winter.”

2. Fusion

What could be more majestic
than the blinding sunset
of a hydrogen bomb;
no ambiguity there,
just cogent notice of national intent?
Who could neglect to ignite
in its stellar flair,
resist fusion’s melting caress,
or fail to glow to its warm radiation?
It’s sort of like getting
an out of the blue valentine,
what’s not to love?
