Candles On the
River
By
stark Genbaku Domu
under
Aioi-bashi bridge
(where
the Little Boy still plays)
this
August night each year
commemorative
candles
glide
gently down the Ota River,
lucid
lanterns of learning
for
long lost symbolic souls
of
youth and innocence past,
or
the sores of wars of men
who
would not agree
to
simply disagree.
