Larkworthy Antfarm reads Walt Whitman's "Beat! beat! drums!"

Please pray for the children who live under the shadow of Fukushima Nuclear Reactor.

2. Thanks for watching!
It's getting a lot of views. I truly appreciate any feedback. I really wanted to make a better video. But I didn't know how.

The fallout makes me think of Passover for some reason. The angel of death from the OT.
