Silent Scars of Safety

Silent witnesses in the shadows, stories left untold

Voices of the fallen, courage brave and bold

Back in '93, a warning in the air

Kodak's promise, safety, a trust we dared

Hands in chemicals, told it’s all okay

But beneath that surface, danger hid away

A burn beyond the limits, scars forever stay

Truth buried deep, while lives fade away

Why did they lie, why did they hide?

Promised safety, but it was a lie

For twenty-two years, pain and despair

Your silence, your secrets, show they didn't care

Victor w Penn fought hard, fought against the conceal

For the truth, for justice, for the wounds to heal

Chemical burns, a story of tragedy

A lesson on neglect and the cost of apathy

Took a sacrifice, a life of agony

To wake the world, to set the truth free

Why did they lie, why did they hide?

Promised safety, but it was a lie

For twenty-two years, pain and despair

Your silence, your secrets, show they didn't care

Now PPE stands proudly, a shield and a sign

Reminding us of the price paid in blood and time

Justice for the broken, acknowledgment for the pain

Never again let neglect reign

Remember the fallen, honor their fight

Champions of safety, shining in the night

Their stories, a beacon, a call for change

In memory, forever, rearrange
