Wizard Of Fiscology

At the hour of global financial collapse
butterflies and bees attend needs of flowers
to transform dirt and rain into fine pollen
that bloom into nutritious fruit of souls
so Kathy at the import business office
records transactions in the book of ghosts.

Riding crowded bus across the glass bridge
with faceless people to bright offices,
Kathy ponders how alligators live
alone in dreary swamps of Florida
while robots and wizards play games of chess
that manage how stock markets rise and fall.

Analyzing purchase data in spreadsheets
that order transactions of sales receipts,
Kathy calculates balance of income
in fraught relation to expenditures
concerning profits from foreign imports
that cycle products from factories to stores.

Caressing petals of the scarlet rose
with admiration of the pious nun,
Kathy considers checks and balances
designed to mitigate excessive risk
with careful observation based on flow
of snow-fed rivers tumbling to the sea.

Our world commercial enterprise is built
on focused people who manipulate
material structures with creative hands,
transforming dirt composed of minerals
into food, clothes, vehicles, and machines
that form infrastructure of our stage.

Running in rainstorm to the hospital
past hundreds of cars stalled in traffic jams,
Kathy finds wizard of fiscology
dying in bed from sudden heart attack,
so she holds his hand and vows to maintain
secure process of financial transactions.

Head swollen with importance of his role,
the stock broker in pinstripe business suit
declares prophets of the pyramid scheme
dispense fake profits to all who invest,
but Kathy ignores trickery of his scam
and maintains focus on financing work.

Shocked she got sucked in soap opera of greed
enforced by thief wearing businessman mask,
Kathy throws fraudulent financial reports
out office window to pave rain-wet streets
with miscalculations of human greed,
then repairs damage of fiscologists.

Orpheus chases King Midas down into caves where Pluto enslaves millions of people who mine wealth of hope from the heart of darkness.
