CRUDE cabin, few comforts- save for
LAYERs adding padding;
AMBER sparks, crackling embers;
DITTY strummed on an old guitar

Amberthal
AMBERthal, the name of the find. Caveman encased in largest
LAYER of tree sap ever seen. Some think him lucky. Could have been
CRUDE tar pit that got him. Or a saber tooth. Was he humming a
DITTY when resin blobbed from above? Or contemplating abstract fate?
Forgetfulness
DITTY ditty bang bang, I’m told, isn’t the proper title;
AMBER was forever, but isn’t Forever Amber anymore;
LAYER my burden down seems to have acquired an extra syllable; but CRUDE Oil Blues is the true blue genuine thing. To sing.
Could and Should
CRUDE materials refined by bleeding-edge technology;
LAYER of secrecy on top of a layer of arrogance:
AMBER mined to reverse extinction while a
DITTY by John Williams swells in the background.
