Nagasaki TV

[busker]

With the volume off, I watch
the presenters bow their heads
like preening swans on the lake.  … excellent 
They might be talking about crime
the rise in obesity, or maybe
the price of steel. I wonder … surely the price of groceries would be more apt?
Who talks about the price of steel?

if the news was on when
the bomb fell? Whether ….. don’t mention the bomb. The title is Nagasaki TV. My expectations aren’t subverted.

in those last splashless moments …. Unsure about “splashless”….is it a worthwhile made up word?
the calm was illusory
like the bleached shadows on the trees? :..: the last line is excellent 

Overall, good pome, but a little predictable from the title 
A pome titled Nagasaki Tv should not mention the bomb, or only faintly, giving hints
