WEATHER REPORT

Intermittent showers, clouds and wind and rain.
Fitting even weather to their streets of open pain.
Full of schizophrenic wonders
And souls with broken dreams.
Where laughter is hysterical
And talk is done in screams.

The refugees of econ. look the same
As those of war, stumbling on in object terror
Of the ones who must have more.

Yet the spoils of economics are much sweeter
Than the rest, for their subtle human ruin
Passes every legal test, and the victors
Live in splendor that they all will emulate,
Since for them the living terror is to share
The losers fate.

Intermittent showers, clouds and wind and rain.
Fitting even weather to their streets of open pain.
