Today's timericks.

 


"I suspect you could help some of the journalists cut down their longer ramblings to more focused pieces..."

James Mackintosh. Journalist, Wall Street Journal.  

A vaccine against ignorance/or maybe even greed/is what investors ought to seek/and what we ought to breed/there is no cure for folly/and inoculations fail/to keep the market steady/or the borrowing to scale.


Like a drunken sailor, Uncle Sam used PPP/to paint the nation ochre with a monetary spree/but bankruptcies are spreading and small bizness goes kerplop/with the sound of shuttered doors at ev'ry other shop. 


Cardboard boxes fill the land/Amazon is feeling grand/when recycled, all those boxes/makes good paper, mulch for phloxes/books and cups and straws galore/let's stay at home and shred some more!


The Senate's warning Zuckerberg and others of his kind/that they expect to see their platforms quickly more refined/to stop the silly rumors and the mongering of hate/otherwise the Senate will . . . continue to just prate.
