a poem
The gasoline engine produced fumes as to offend;
and its' fuel, rare and expensive, mostly came from foreign soil.
Who could guarantee petroleum's supply without war?
There must be a superior way, a labor of inventor's love/
inspired Rudolph Diesel.
In 1892 debutted a new engine; the Diesel engine.
At the 1892 World's fair in Chicago,
A diesel engine with two twelve foot tall cylinders,
powered a generator,
The world's Fair had electricity, powered by a new engine.
Peanut oil was chosen for fuel.
Vegetable oil produced virtually no fumes, no smell
Domestically produced/ far fewer fumes than petroleum,
it was all He'd hoped for.
In fact any vegetable or seed oil will power a Diesel engine.
It was up to politics after that.
Standard Oil was willing to do anything to grow;
anti-trust laws were enacted to end the monopoly of oil.
But its' influence remained, and remains today.
Foreign wars are fought for naught,
to keep the oil supply flowing;
no one aware that the U.S. could supply
its own liquid fuel.
No more Global Warming
Just 7% of the land, farmed for vegetable or seed oil,
the only requirement of an engine whose nature
is all but forgotten.
We are single fuel dependent/
A monopoly on the liquid fuels market exists,
who will revive Rudolph Diesel's vision?
