Not Ironic, Just Tragic

Japan faced disaster in Nagasaki and Hiroshima
They rebuilt, and remembered well earlier days
In choosing nuclear power, it required amnesia
As the Fukushima disaster savaged Japan again
Some spoke of irony, but it was solely a tragedy
For they made choices and then didn't remember
They chose the nuclear path of energy to follow
They'd surrendered to a modern society's needs
While the earth was wounded, and yet bleeds
