1668 - African and Asian roundup

Gaddafi's forces push the rebels back
Towards Benghazi, eastern Libya
The debate rages, should the rebels' lack
Of arms be rectified by governments here
In the west, or by Saudi Arabia
Meanwhile, recovering from the tsunami
It may be, but the risk is nuclear
Now in Fukushima, Japan, the sea
Contaminated more than it should be
By thousands of times. Abandoned dogs bark
While livestock starve to death in their shelter
The people have fled, leaving just fifty
Nuclear plant workers to repair the wreck
Regardless of the radioactive air
