[Newspoetry] Widespread News Poetry Lay-Offs Follow Crash ofFree-Market Ideologues

[DL Emerick]

One trillion dollars?
$1,000,000,000,000.
 
I knew I should have incorporated,
Sold stock in myself, or anything else,
Just issued debt madly,
Let my friends bid the asset up,
Traded shares and paid myself handsomely,
And then asked for a bail-out
When my ship of estate sank.
 
As one observer says:
Bush spoke like a pirate on
Talk Like A Pirate Day,
19 September 2008.
