| Notes | This short poem describes the horror of the bombing of Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II by comparing it closely to mushrooms and fungus: the mushroom 'cloud' of the bomb itself is mentioned, as is the 'spores' falling from the Enola Gay, the American aircraft that dropped the bomb. 'Nie Wieder Krieg' may refer to a 1924 Kollwitz lithograph artwork, and the phrase itself translates to 'Never again war'. |
