It’s 12 years since Fukushima nuclear disaster and still the radiation spill continues. I wrote this poem in 2012, today I recorded this demo of me reading it.

All remember Nagasaki
Never forget Hiroshima
Now we stand and cry together
On the beach at Fukushima
This is where we meet our Nuclear nemesis
The fuel companies are lying
Political leaders are lying
Certain scientists are lying
Just keep right on lying
Chernobyl partly melted down
It killed a million people
Fukushima is much more
Deadly for the Japanese
But that’s not where it ends
It’s only the beginning
Pollution in the atmosphere
The Pacific ecosystem
Is well and truly fucked
Mutant mammals birds and fishes
Turn up all around the globe
We’re irradiated, we don’t EVEN know
All remember Nagasaki
Never forget Hiroshima
Now we’re standing together
On the beach at Fukushima
We’re all in it together
On the beach at Fukushima
