Chernobyl

Danica Anderson 2007 (Florida)

Rubble in the air
Nothing is to spare
Nothing but despair
Shell of glory of a city
Many are just in pity
The Destruction is dire
But there is nothing that others will desire
People fleeing from the streets
There is no longer anything to eat
The radiation is too strong
But many are too foolish to go on
