The Oil Century

Post by mnaz »

Gasoline spigot to our mouths.
Drink it, the president mumbled.
Dictator X in crosshairs, kill shot.
We were saturated in bloody oil,
black crude of freedom isn't free.
I remember what they said.

it's all about the quest for oil
an obsession no different than heroin....
junkie marauders
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

Objects in rear view mirror are closer than they appear.
Oil. Heroin. True, they were the same disease.
Thanks mr. saw, el mingo.

If the brains of oil speaketh facts - 47 years left before oil becomes very, very scarce.

Time to stow away your oil ... time flies.. even faster greased up with the black gold.

And if Ram keeps on keepin' on, maybe more like 43 years. Drill baby drill. Burn baby burn. Make it count..
