he came upon an oil platform...a drilling rig on the top of a hill.... .it reached into the sky 100 feet .. it was a beautiful day ..sunny no wind,, ,,and there was a rythmic pumping sound..and the men there wore high visibility coveralls ... some were red,,some blue ,, and they all had on hard hats . . .
... the sound was like an dentist's drill.. very high revs. piercing.. drill fast.... hit oil .....and move on ....he watched it for awhile,,coming out from one corner of the rig was a pipe going out and then up..it had some scaffolding to strengthen it,,,,,,from it issued a flame ..a flame under tremendous pressure, . . . . . . . . suddenly there was a concussion . . ..sound and a shock wave..part of the rig collapsed. . . .. oil started spewing into the sky...and coating the ground with black..soon the oil caught on fire ,, ,, making a thundering sound .. . alarms started sounding . where the rig used to be there was a ball of flame.. and above the flame . .arose a huge column of thick black smoke rising up into the sky...
FUBAR.......SNAFU
..he followed a pipeline ran downhill from the rig .. it leaked a bit .. .. .it ran down to a disgusting pink pool . a pond of pink gooey stuff ..which didnt look too safe..plus, it smelled something awful. There were bubbles coming to its surface which made a burping sound.. he walked along its shore till he came to an earthan dam holding the pink goo back...but the dam wasnt tall enough so some of the pink goo was spilling slowly over the edge . heading down hill with gravity. so he ran downhill beside it till he came to a thin border of trees and some undergrowth.. .not enough to call a forest.. it wasnt an ecosystem.. it was just a buffer between two environments, .the pollution and the suburb.. a visual nicety.. hiding the destruction wreaked on gaia. so no one could see... He walked quickly thru the band of trees onto a gorgeous manicured lawn
onto the suburb
