Nuclear

Nuclear

There’s a nuclear reaction

                In the sky

That gives life to us all.

For all eternity

                We’ve wondered why.

Now we teach it in school.

It’s either a scientific product

                Of gravity

Or it’s a god.

Producing endless

                Depravity

From scientific and religious odd-bods.

How our gods change through time. Once it was universally accepted that the sun was a god. It was appeased through prayer, ritual and worship. Now it is a scientific phenomenon whose secrets have provided us with colossal weapons.

The sun – life-giver.

The sun – the cause of much death and misery.

Human beings have a way of taking something good and twisting it into something evil.
