for years the nuclear industry
has been conducting business
in a leaking kind of way
and the said leaking
is more than likely
happening again to-day

the authorities in charge
of monitoring
are asleep at the wheel
and are not enforcing
their regulatory spiel

Tepco has got some explaining to do
as to why they've let the leaking ensue
Fukishima is their disgrace
over a long period of time
they've let nuclear material
leak into the air and sea space
and it continues to go on...
nuclear particles not been contained
contaminating for hundreds of years
the half life of this scourge
last for eons

but a few months ago
a report did surface
saying that more nuclear material
from Fukishima did flow
folks in the near and far proximity
of the power station
will ever be asking questions
of the nuclear authorities
with regards to not following
safety regulations

they're failing in their duty of care
to their fellow man
seas and animals
and the lands
the news is never good
where the leaking of nuclear material
is concerned
the energy providers
of the world
must be accountable
for the blight
they impose
on the natural world
