Giorgio Veneto (Athens, Greece)
Huge Power Station's reactor
Huge Power Station's reactor,
The generator fast rotates,
Magnetic field and conductor
Electric power will create.
I stand alone amidst the field,
Nine hundred fifty megawatts
The AC power's ‘nough to build,
Bright lighted days from the night's nought.
I am the Giant on the field,
It's my decision to conduct,
My electromagnetic shield,
Protects your insignificance.
I am the power's perfection,
Burn fossil fuels to extremes,
I am your mind's first projection
Of Gods' Mechanical machines.
I am your soul's introspection,
My imperfection leads your days
The stratosphere's heat advection,
And all your lives I can defray.
Huge Power Station's reactor,
The generator fast rotates,
Magnetic field and conductor,
Electric power will create.
I stand alone amidst the field,
Nine hundred fifty megawatts
The AC power's ‘nough to build,
Bright lighted days from the night's nought.
