Morning Rain

Aloha poets,
     Cool morning rain inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!

Reassure Erasures

A deafened defend of the ebbed from indebted bay
Searches rise for foe or friend as the webbed fall prey
In crass demeanor old habits encircle new messes made
Capital flight books at midnight against the spread of aid

The sound of the fiscally sound pound across the bay
A fancy annoyance finds buoyancy in austerity way
Recluses play dominos to ignore the domino effect
Off duty food stays the course with hand-picked

The indebted reaffirmed vow to cut a profit
Audio animation cackles slow to put off it
Vows of defense in the pursuit of bold action
Economic integration to be a coming attraction

Rounding it out stays roughly flat on the day
Loving a hole in the wall throws love away
The debt-ridden try to go back to school
Fire red remains the epitome of cool

Central posts supposedly restore the calm
Business of book is a single prayer balm
Whether it be to unsettle or reassure
You belong there to defend or defer

Observers orchestrate, create cultures of celebrity
Prompting a call to forestall a more radical celibacy
The collective continue to issue their indebted bonds
Increasing loan guarantees sipping under palm fronds

A crisis surmounted moves the whole program forward
European Stabilization Mechanism 2013 tows untoward
Impose loss to bond investor if country runs up high debt
Further integration pools money, individuals stand wet

Fresh emergency measures of care forestall the old
The Old West got our attention by being so bold
Narrow national interests, no solidarity in weak 
To announce annoyance is duly to truly speak

To hike up new fund is to strike up the band
Prevents an evening of revert to quicksand
Defends common currency to hold hands
Pretends common courtesy across lands
