Post Seismic Slip / (Ecopoetry By Leo Seiler)

Post Seismic Slip

Did I dream a conspiracy?

Have I let slip the seismic tongue?

Will I pray to pay with death?

Will I shift and shudder?

Eternally consciously dreaming dream?

‘Post Seismic Slip’, another phrase.

Did I dream this phrase?

Is Japan really there, this place I’ve never seen?

With my own closed eyes,

Did I dream…Japan?

Did I dream?

‘Wear your sunscreen so you don’t get cancer-

Don’t forget the tips of your ears…wear a hat!’

Bombs are bad but Nuclear Fallout is…

It’s like sunshine when sunshine is ‘good’.

Did I dream?

Frustrating reason > stimulating curiosity?

PHD’s offered as carnival rings?

For a carousel airplane ‘science tease’?

Educated ‘denial of surreality’?  Wheeeee!

Subway turnstiles we pass as we please?

Did I dream?

Scientists who endured through Chernobyl with their families?

At odds with the final IAEA Report on ‘stillborn fatalities’?

What did they say was the most important?

The first 30 days? The first 60?

Miso Soup? Prussian Blue?

What are these words? ‘Physical Remediation’?

Did I dream? “Never let it in is the best way to get it out once it’s in get it out as quickly-”

Fukushima.

Did I dream?

Did I dream?

Tsunami backup generators in the basement?

Adam Curtis and the BBC?

Designed failure? Reactors 1, 2 and 6 built by GE?

All approved by the NRC?

Nuclear…

Regulatory…

Commission…what do they regulate?

Dreams?

Did I dream?

Did you? Have we conspired?

Shall we 'will it' all a dream?

Should we close our eyes,

We shall conspire it so.
