The Radiance of A Thousand Suns...

My mojo is off tonight (headache)

Ive been asked how i would finish the following poem:

"If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst into the sky..."

How the original one finished is irrelevant but whats important is how you would finish it.

Suggestions??

everyone in the whole world would die

"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.

Ive only managed to come up with one, and im not too happy with it:

"If the radiance of a thousand suns
were to burst into the sky.
I would become death
while granting you life."

Back in BLACK

...I surely will be consumed
By the brightness that would ensue.

...will this be enough
to enlighten my world?

let us know how it goes.

Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?

We just need Exception to step in and skool is all.

Yep, the original quote is:

"If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One... I am become Death, the Shatterer of Worlds.- The Bhagavad Gita"

It was also quoted at the conclusion of the Manhattan Project.
