Tokyo Nuclear Disaster

Orchids.JPG
In a shadowy entryway
Unblemished orchids stand still
We too wait in an Osaka motel
With reentry permits
Checking outbound flights
On the digital media
To anywhere.
 
Calling forth a poignant will
To surrender to the entrapped
Euphoria of the night
We take safe iodine
And cesium readings.
Drink bottled water
And go to sleep.
