Bhopal Medical Appeal 2

Torture me

aim a blowtorch at my eyes
pour acid down my throat
strip the tissue from my lungs
drown me in my own blood
chock my baby to death in front
of me, force me to watch
her struggles as she dies -
cripple my children, let pain
be their daily and only playmate -
spare me nothing
ruin my health so i can no longer
work of feed my family -
watch us starve - see my children
drinking water at night
to fill their hungry bellies
then poison our drinking water
never warn us of the danger
cause monsters to be born among us
make us curse god
stunt our living children's growth
say it's nothing to do with you
don't ever say sorry
for twenty to long year ignore our cries,
teach me that myrage is
as useless as my tears
prove to me beyound all doubt
there's no justice in this world
for you are a big american corporation
and i am women a bhopal
