I have been asked by a colleague (we teach in a secondary school) to help her find a poem written about atomic bombs including a reference to Einstein being really disappointed by this (I think it could be Edith Sitwell but I'm not sure). Apparently it is very short (only 8 lines long).
Any ideas?????????????????????

You may be thinking of 'Three Poems of the Atomic Age'.
