Directive

‘Your belongings are circled, zoned.
Pack your baggage (infants, dogs, cats);
 pile up the carts, Grandad!

‘Forget the rice. Let all scavengers
grow happily fat. Let rats & mice
like zanies swell helplessly on it!

‘Attend to instructions: in a matter of hours
(3 at the most) flocks of obliterating birds
-  rocketing -  stuttering - will burn up your hut, son!

‘Agitate your family; quickly stir up your friends;
concentrate your mind; firmly fix it on vital interests.
Not a bomb shall be aimed at anonymous persons
-  only  at   you,    Pop!’
