Poem, for DT. I was forced.

One Second


In Thirty seconds a man can die.
In Thirty days a war can start.
In Thirty weeks a world can war.
In Thirty years empires can fall.
In Thirty decades "rembrance" can be held.
In Thirty centuries they can forgive and forget.
But in ten seconds a button can be pressed.

And in One second,
the world can end.
