Wonderful verse Dave. I love the theme, which to me celebrates modern life emblemized through the humble oil drum.
A beautiful and artistic re-purposing of both the familiar "oil drum" for a poetic as well as musical use – inspiring better use of what we might take for granted.
Even vinyl records are made from oil!
And there is a dancing rhythm in this poem which carries us along – beyond the 3 lines and into the rest of the day.
Clever, inspiring poetry – thank you for sharing this Dave.
