Musical Poem based on the words to
"The Midnight Oil Burns".

The Midnight Oil Burns:
A musical journey into whaling in its heyday. Oil from a bloodied beast at sea: It kept the lights on at night. Now it keeps the cars, trains, ships at sea, aircraft and buses running. The life substance of ancient fauna from deep in the ground is the life blood of modern machinery and warcraft, under AI proxy and deep-seek. Strange and amazing it is so. And we have more oil here in America, Canada and Greenland than any other place on earth, ready to be lanced out of a planet raging with political and spiritual upheaval. Like a whale it will lunge and shoot out the ground in spray and greasy mist, leaving blood and an oil slick in the war machines wake. America will grow & rise again out of the land like never before!
