Abysm Nucleus

Door shut down

With a grating sound

Group of men surrounded

By complete darkness

In the pale glint of the headlamps

Grey concrete

Structures peel from the twilight

Into the heat

A motionless cloud of dust forms a fatal mist

Endless corridors, countless cables

Power plant vascular system connect a variety of now

Useless devices, shattered pipes

Passage is blocked

Interior rooms demolished

In spite of the massive preparation

The burden of inability

Descended on them with the

First step they did

The whole previous life of the men

Is left before the door lock

Septum between before and now

Dosimeter bawls “Get out of there!”

The sense of duty towards humanity

Leads them to move on

Displays drop out

X-values beyond all

Under the gas mask they can hardly breathe

Men of honor are afraid to stumble

Mask begins to melt

Crawl to proceed

No one would come

For corpse retrieval

Trudge through the radioactive grit

Buried under the sarcophagus

Shattering streams of charged particles

Creating fields with massive neutron activity

Atom for peace

Rest in dust

Atom for peace

Rest in dust

Reactor core and surrounding areas were merged to one

Foundation load exceeded reliable load by far

The whole core energy penetrates to the outside

Everything in the way is getting disintegrated

Undead molten masses which no scientist knows

Never seen by humanity now perceptible in the bodies

Ancient horror settled in the ruin

Reaching with his fiery breath

For the hearts of men
