300,000°
With this child
With this man
I have made the world anew
I will lay waste to civilization
Indiscriminate
No compassion
Men, women, children
See the light
Fade to memory
In the wake of my creation
Beneath the Manhattan Skyline
I have become death
The destroyer of worlds

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
