Not in Reilly.

Edward Joseph Lister Lowbury (December 12, 1913 - July 10, 2007) was an English physician, bacteriologist and pathologist, and also a published poet, who wrote criticism and biography.[1]

Professionally, he worked as head of a burns research unit for the Medical Research Council, writing an important text on hospital infections.

The Moon recurs more effectively in work he produced in Africa and in a poem about Blitz firewatching, when "it's the animal in you that insists on life." That sustained service with the Royal Army Medical Corps in Kenya, where he also studied local healing arts (1943-46), and he went from being a clinical doctor to a medical scientist.

On the outbreak of war he was called up into the Royal Army Medical Corps in which he served as a pathologist, mainly in East Africa. He was in Kenya when news of the nuclear bombing of Japan came through, and it was the day after the destruction of Nagasaki that he wrote his poem August 10, 1945 – The Day After. It was first published in Equator, the magazine of the Mombasa Arts Club, in December that year. Its bleak conclusion was: “For if God had nothing to do with it / Extinction is the least price man can pay.”
