Atomic Myopia

Three Mile Island, Chernobyl
Tip of the iceberg
Capitalism and Communism alike
Sacrifice the environment
health of the people is destroyed
to amass power and profits for the few privileged
Nuclear power, nuclear weapons
inextricably linked
man's perceived mastery over nature
perceived mastery over his foes
Waste and nuclear subs poisoning the seas
cancer and pollution
thousand year legacy

From Chernobyl to Puerto Rico

Unsafe reactors stand
silently killing
Leaking deadly radiation
So called cold war is over
Military industrial complex still reigns
Still our money pays
For reactors and planes
oil companies still blocking research
into alternative energies
forcing our dependence on nuclear and fossil fuels
No more nuclear power
No more nuclear waste
No more nuclear weapons
No more nuclear death
