    EPIGRAPH: Minutes nearer Midnight. On which stroke Powers at the heart of matter, powers We shall have hacked through thorns to kiss awake, Will open baleful, sweeping eyes, draw breath And speak new formulae of megadeath. No souls came from Hiroshima u Know Earth wore a strange new zone of energy Caused by? Smashed atoms of the dead my dears News that brought into play our deepest fears.
    FROM: The Book of Ephraim, (1976), Book, US
