Tomato vines climb cracked concrete walls
Dust settles soft on lead-lined halls
Counter ticks steady in the watch room
Needle dances when the morning comes
Geiger Garden grows where the invisible falls
Roots drink deep through cracked concrete walls
Misty bridge glows in counter light
We burn green through the dead of night
Camera clicks on rusted chain link fence
Geiger song makes perfect sense
Bus died waiting at the checkpoint gate
Driver prayed but arrived too late
Potassium pills with breakfast tea
Shield the thyroid inside of me
Tomatoes ripen red on Geiger vines
Sweetest fruit in all the quarantine lines
Geiger Garden grows where the invisible falls
Roots drink deep through cracked concrete walls
Misty bridge glows in counter light
We burn green through the dead of night
Mist lifts slow off the river bend
Two figures wave as strangers blend
Lead-lined gloves pass seeds to bare hands
Life insists across the forbidden lands
Film roll ends on greenhouse glass panes
Future develops in radiation rains
No more buses no more running fast
Roots hold firm where the dead grass passed
Geiger Garden grows where the invisible falls
Roots drink deep through cracked concrete walls
Misty bridge glows in counter light
We burn green through the dead of night
Geiger Garden stands through it all
Click and breathe
Green light stays
