Three D Meltdown



Dot   ...   dash   ...   dot

China Syndrome just got Russian reactor hot

Dash   ...   dot   ...   dash

Three Mile Island raging nuclear flood flash

Espionage
Sabotage
Foreign fingers are on the power plant switch
And the Chaos Candidate robots, 
holding the extortion payment stash,
don’t seem to give the slightest patriotic twitch

Critical infrastructure compromised
National security insulation fried
3D jukebox meltdown,
the day American Revolution music died

Dash   ...   dot   ...   dash

Chernobyl smoke signals on a secret cabal
Clandestine meeting at Trump Tower
leased office space
Bringing a briefcase
of dirty money laundered cash

Barbarians are ruble rappelling
over the Oval firewall gate
Crashing the Independence Day bash

Dash   ...   dot   ...   dash

Critical infrastructure compromised
National security insulation fried
3D jukebox meltdown,
the day that Democracy music died

Dot   ...   dash   ...   dot

Fukushima cooling rods treasonous smouldering
Surreptitious meeting at the Seychelles
leased island space
Back channel offer made,
Soviet mob getting dead president paid a lot

Scythians are ruble rappelling
over the firewall Watergate
Devious intrigue, Lady Liberty seditious plot

Dot   ...   dash   ...   dot

Critical infrastructure compromised
National security insulation fried
3D jukebox meltdown,
the day that Democracy music died

Dot   ...   dot
Dash   ...   dash
Dot   ...   dot

Three dimensional existential crisis shout-out
Warning: the atomic reactors are running hot!

Freedom frivolity ain’t dancing no more,
Flag songs aren’t playing ... decibel is on zero
3D jukebox juice no longer got live flow
Constitutional meltdown — 
don’t hear any more elected official lies
All counterfeit dollars were cast to the ground,
the czar-ful day Democracy music died
