Splash Garden Setting

Aloha poets,
     can you imagine sitting in this chair in a splash tropical setting?
Inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!


In a Dusty Industry


It seeps across borders at currency's whim
Pointed global fingers of "not me it's him"
In prefrontals humans image to speculate
Global agreement extinctions, as of late


Competitive edges sneak out all along
Out of control whistles the jazzy song
Walled-off money for a transfer wait
Super industrialized national debate


Global power lies in nations of twenty
Quantitative easing gets fancy and plenty
Little guy below squeeze with no press briefing
Money across borders, investment banks sneezing


Apps are fun for individual knowledge at play
Capital controls hold foreign money at bay
Global growth rebalance a fantasy island
Investment banking awaits its next styling


Reception of money starts a regulation boost
Ups the central bank reserves for currency roost
Massive purchases target a foreign denomination
Push up the currency value of your chosen nation


Financial system of yours can whipsaw a market
So your export-led growth goes into your pocket
While domestic consumption doesn't give a hoot
For global domination, they use a financial boot


Sixteen nation euro zone just a sitting duck?
U.S treasury driving around in a big truck
History shows innovative diversity wins
Think tanks ideological tonic and gins


Ok now, let's put our game faces on
Finance ministers mark zones with a song
Investors borrow money where interest rates are low
Send it out to emerging markets to get two for the show


Overarching love reaches back at our unilateral ranch
Frameworks engineer for this new orderly dance
Double tax on investments of their little bonds
Central bank ready, currency markets dawn


Fast furious capital inflow creates a new bubble
Valuation for investor's imaginary speculation trouble
Currency in your hand buys denomination of foreign lands
Keep the valuation low, export money rises in your hands


Business as usual at home in our new congress campaign
Documentary runs hot, china views nobel prize's chain
Emerge market indonesia, south africa, thailand, brazil
Fear in competitive edges swallows a hard global pill
