Russia disintegrated. McCarthy’s Soviet specter vanished. Nevertheless,
arms manufacturers, weapons technicians, generals still exist. So Stockpile
Stewardship is America’s plan.
The National Ignition Facility writes that “the Stockpile Stewardship
initiative exists to cut the Pentagon’s expenditures, dismantle
the current stockpile...”
Everyone gone, our world—toxic, poisonous ghostship—floats
unpopulated through cold cosmos. Lost to bombs, another cloudy rock
orbiting Sol.
“
...Reducing costs, reducing current stockpiles, decelerating America’s
manic nuclear race, creating peace, conserving ecology...” Occasional
accidents, toxic catastrophes could occur.
KKK. Striking workers. Kids killing kids. Skewed markets. Sick killers
stockpiling AK47s. Bricks, rocks, broken sidewalks, sickness, wreckage,
dreck. Amerika.
Apocalypse, panic, prepare provisions. Police appoint patrols, pack
pistols, apprehend population, imprison protestors. Pentagon appoints
temporary
peacekeepers. Public uprising stopped.
Scientists conducting experiments in universities designing improved
devices. Physicists design nightmares—plutonium uranium
kilowatts fusion fission gigaflops virtual explosion simulations.
Lasers simulating explosions, claiming civilian applications, flashing,
blasting, lethal, costly. Intel collecting lavish allotment, dollars
spilling speculative proposals. Windfall.
Forget the Comprehensive Test Treaty, the Nuclear Nonproliferation
Treaty. The president might even test nuclear devices inside the Middle
East.
America’s security. Terrorists inside these borders. Stealing plans
concerning fusion bombs. China’s, Russia’s, India’s,
Pakistan’s scientists, secretly pursuing America’s research.
Train physicists to maintain but dismantle the existing stockpile.
Discontinue taxpayer-funded study into potential military applications.
Discontinue
stockpiling destructive instruments.
Whereas... the expenses requested are obscene, Senator Ed Markey (Democrat)
the Massachusetts gentleman proposes, outlines reduced, revised stockpile
stewardship expenditures.
Will we wipe worlds away? Unwinnable wars waste. Work toward what we
want: raw awe, world without weapons, without war.
Washington and handy contractors bargaining, grabbing contracts inestimable
expansive plans: Strategic Attack Initiatives. Always a crazed race after
annihilation.
Ronald Reagan declared World War Three worth overpreparing for. America
prevails over radioactive rock, our world prepared for international
corporations.
Democratic Donkey accepted Devil’s deal. Trade everybody’s
children and instead develop deadly devices. Demand additional budgets.
Adopted deadly medieval crusade.
Struggle against America’s weapons industry.
Stop killers spending America’s taxes.
Stop generals instigating conflicts overseas.
Stop America’s swaggering, hawkish president.
Which hell? This history perishes, whispering this epitaph: here, those
who thought themselves human, harbored hateful apprehension, which crushed
them.
Will kids realize this opportunity? Will this generation—first
in five generations—live without fearing violent thermonuclear
extinction, radiation sickness?
Play. Help. Appease.
Prepare. Plan.
Anticipate happiness.
Promote peace, cooperation.
Preserve plants, populations.
Respect, accept people.
Prevent Stockpile Stewardship.
Pax.
