Exxon Valdez, <br />The 1989 environmental disaster that plagued the pristine wilderness of Alaska, <br />Is back in court, Exxon faces punitive damages in excess 2.5 billion dollars, <br />“That’s not fair” the CEO for Exxon hollers. <br />Exxon has paid more 3.2 billion for the clean-up in Prince William Sound, <br />Should Exxon be penalized more? <br />Is only 1/14 the profits made Exxon is 2006,32.5 Billion dollars to much, <br />We as Americans should holler, is Cheney still at Halliburton? <br />The profits are obscene, close to dealings with the devil, and such. <br />I viewed a documentary on ENRON with my wife last night, <br />It was no surprise that Cheney and Bush’s got along well, <br />with the unscrupulous chairman, Ken Lay, of ENRON. <br /> 'Exxon Mobil, the sole operator, is planning to shoot some three-dimensional seismic logs on the field, which has never been done and could reveal new reserves, ” <br />said Elizabeth Cheney, Exxon Mobil's operations superintendent for the field. <br />She’s a proud daughter of her daddy-O, <br />who’s vice-president of the USA, (see Observation ConocoPhilips) <br />Exxon, will the case thrown out, that is my prediction, <br />One of judges had recused himself, Judge Alito, <br />because he has stock in Exxon. <br />“What shall we do with drunken captain? ” <br /> An Irish drinking son adaptation. <br />The old rule he who has the gold rules the world, <br />The new rule, he who controls energy moves the gold from the platform <br />to the petrol station. <br />The globe has been reduced to size of a chess board, <br />With individual countries being many a chess piece, <br />The political explanation will be twirled, <br />To satisfy the cogs of the wheel, <br />Remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease. <br /> <br />(10-29-2007)<br /><br />Joe Rosochacki<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/old-oil-never-dies-it-only-fades-away/
