Sense Sonnet - Chiller

First but not Last

The U.S. had the A bomb first,
And dropped two of them on Japan.
War ceased after the second burst,
Ending that nuke installment plan.
What if Japan kept up the fight?
Would the U.S. have nuked it out
In many mushroom clouds of might?
Japan would have burned more, no doubt.
And what if none but the U.S.
Had the ability to nuke?
Would war have since been more or less?
Today, somewhere there is a kook,

Who vows the U.S. take its turn
Feeling nuclear wrath, and burn.
