Who asked for nuclear weapons? <br />Did we all have a say <br />Who decided that we needed them? <br />Through taxes we should pay <br /> <br />What was the point of building them? <br />In bunkers they must stay <br />What happens when they get too old? <br />They won’t just rot away <br /> <br />Why do we need to have them? <br />When fearing them so much <br />Why should someone decide our fate? <br />By buttons they might touch <br /> <br />Where did the idea come from? <br />That spread to every nation <br />Where do we go when the sirens sound? <br />Before mass devastation <br /> <br /> <br />© 2008 David Threadgold <br />Rambling Riddles
