Corroded wheels kiss uranium rails
Quercus robur splits the floorboard plates
Strontium ninety feeds the root crowns
Betula pendula claims the brake bounds
Dosimeter clicks in micro-sieverts
Photosynthesis rewrites the half-life curves
Chlorophyll drinks what gamma gives
Green fire burns where poison lives
Rust blooms where nothing should survive
Iron oxide feeds the roots alive
Rust blooms past the exclusion line
Life persists in oxidized shine
Pripyat bridge sways in contaminated wind
Salix alba weeps where girders pinned
Cesium thirteen seven seals the welds
Populus tremula shivers in fields
Dosimeter clicks in micro-sieverts
Photosynthesis rewrites the half-life curves
Chlorophyll drinks what gamma gives
Green fire burns where poison lives
Rust blooms where nothing should survive
Iron oxide feeds the roots alive
Rust blooms past the exclusion line
Life persists in oxidized shine
My manifest lists timber and grain
Now Urtica dioica owns the train
Achillea millefolium stitches seams
Taraxacum officinale breaks beams
Cesium thirty, plutonium long
Half-lives outlast human song
But roots crack concrete in a decade span
My rust becomes their living land
Rust blooms where nothing should survive
Iron oxide feeds the roots alive
Rust blooms past the exclusion line
Life persists in oxidized shine
Conductor's logbook turns to dust and loam
Quercus petraea calls this steel its home
Wind lifts the keys of maple samara
Spinning down on thermal aura
Rust blooms where nothing should survive
Iron oxide feeds the roots alive
Rust blooms past the exclusion line
Life persists in oxidized shine
Rust blooms where nothing should survive
Iron oxide feeds the roots alive
Geiger clicks grow faint and distant
Green inherits the iron
