Atom's View
Standing atom under glass
Tasked with eyes that understand
The rationed state of things alike
That drive a man to burn alive
Created by a force of steel
Sterilized betwixt the frames
Brought to life by light and flame
Given code in lieu of name
Birthing bit of mother star
Anti-matter held by hand
Meant to alter time itself
Swell to bold our fading strand
Mankind peaks in micro scope
Evolving to the grayest sea
Departing from mortality
Denying all causality
Glowed amidst the fading skin
Housed us once before the change
Leaving bone to feed the dogs
Chewing 'til their jaws may break
Atom sits as yet unused
Under lock and key of choice
Promising to save our lives
Yet to realize its voice
Highest bid of world at war
May condemn or grant our vice
To feed upon immobile sky
Ascending to our reasons why.
