THE PLAIN FALL OF WALL STREET
Folder:
JOURNAL # 41 'The Plain Fall
Of Wall Street'
spews mud money
and through a collaboration
of questionable disciplines
mud money huts were born of
such slimy slappers' sludge
sliding off into
fierce mud slides
all their own
tumbling from
uncertainty's fall
as the slick, slight of hand
that comes with decimation
of others plans
plunders
the pockets of
damn near all
leaving the eagle eyed vultures
so fat and viciously smiling
while their prey cowers on
fearful, disgruntled and alarmed
holding in their hands
useless now papers that
told of their wealth to spare
in essence
their fools' gold
and the definition of these
very thoughts is
Recession
or so I've been so stupidly told
wise acre am I to believe it?
would be like casting light
into a big menacing black hole
pointless to deny
the 21rst century has its own
people who panned for fool's gold
and they broke their lifetime's backs
saving for that one particular rainy day
only to be forced alone, distraught
and hungry
out into the unforgiving cold
empty handed the lot of them
all the way.......................
