an inevitability about their defeat
changes in the social and economic structure of society
an inevitable cycle structure
broken dreams
broken pendulum
tried to be brave
but failed to stand tall upon
the system was descending into chaos
so their courage failed them?
At this point the path descends steeply?
All their decisions have been entirely governed by self-interest
Words fail them?
descend into great fall
the frail stems
easily damaged & broken
Human nature is frail?
The world economy
monetary policy
grinding poverty
economic growth
integration of the world
trade, investment and money
social, economic and political issues
economic history and the current economic climate
grinding teeth and cracking bones
Globalisation shakes the world
Inflation continues to accelerate
the basic tendency of the system
remains inflected towards stagnation in profits and rates of accumulation
The accelerating pace of globalisation is having a profound effect on life
globalisation may be the explanation for key trends in the world economy
the erosion of their confidence
Metal splinters and pins
money to dust gold into rust
like everything in between will die with time
confidence has been slowly eroded by repeated failures
it needs to remove a splinter from world’s heart
world’s in cracking form at the moment
like The leaves on the plant had shrivelled up from lack of water
catastrophic effects
catastrophic losses
catastrophic results
collapsed investment banks
economy failed catastrophically
withered and tired
like a shrivelled old man
burning sight
melting future
the charred remains of a burnt-out dreams
like we had the sun in our eyes?
Back to the Future
a devastating reality
marks on the body
like the wounds made by nails
Is it stigmata?
portrait of a false policies?
false assumptions
false plans?
false economic strategies?
false economy?
It is difficult to keep up with the rapid pace of change?
So early warnings of rising water levels prevented another major catastrophe?
We saw the World economy going through their paces
but there are number of tasks to perform in order to see what they are capable of doing!

Wonderful writing. Brilliantly laying-out the present conditions in the world. I am Conservative in my politics, but I also believe there must come a time when money no-longer has inportance, and people help and tend to all needs through altruism. But It should not be attempted before the human soul is ready, before the leaders of humanity are founded in Divine truth. This is easy to judge, by character, by willingness for governments to live by the same rules as those that govern the people. This is not at all the character of the people now trying to reshape our world. It is a terrible outcome on the horizon—much purification yet to come.

“Ring around the rosy, pocket full of posies, ashes, ashes, we all fall down”...all is connected…good piece…hard read the reality of the reality…is reality.

Ushna, this poem is so relevant to so many nations. It is powerful, profound and thought-provoking.

Well my dear this is from those in power of past times.. The greed they wanted was taken over years many, we has a people have to take more control… Obama cant do it all but, let me say this, he is not evil like those before him.. He truly cares… The greed of men who care only about their own pockets will always be a first if we don’t stop them… Nice read my dear..

So well said and written, Very well done.

On the factual level….bold true.
On the daily basis bewilderement.
On the soul’s ground… supreme fear
of a catastrophe….early…. earlier than repressed.
Shivers…and pains.
Not for the ones that cannot fight with teeth and nails….
metaphor of the eternal discontent….
and of the new order of thoughts that the children should learn.
Optimism is as realistic as profound pesimism.
It can… it is an urge of the survival.
When one pass the line of critic pesimism…
becomes desperate…
and this is not going t save the banckrupcy…
and the misery of politics.
Let’s find ….a brighter look too..
just for balancing….the black omens.
Rosa (good writting… extremely pessimistic… not unreal nowadays….what I do personally will help…hope it will… world needs each individual… and this one full of brave love and brave heart)

Great stuff!

A poem for the times. I agree with the proprosal, that the global economic therories have led us to this melt down. That and the greed of a select few. Wake up world before it’s too late, weren’t we better off when tarriffs balanced the borders! and kept these wild swings confined.
