Mars chomps up Wrigleys?

adding chewing gum,
to sticky toffee pudding.
Time to seek dentist.

mouthwatering arbitrage theory?

with oodles of shorts,
are days numbered? uncovered?
Matador seeks bull.

Start of a vernal bond market season?

after months of buzz,
have the bond beehives fashioned,
suckled honeycomb?

having the measure of crosstown rivals

a porous pocket,
serves a better purpose than,
a leaky bank vault.

Awaiting Merrill's restrained resurgence

their ticked tonsils,
vomit up jobs, as they hope
for a fit summer.

Citi: $ loss, job loss.

sullen moods, except
accepted ineptitude,
as one expected.

Pretty Dress for a New Infrastructure Debutant

Goldies fly Mach 2.

affect safe cashflows?

scared-white xmas for the fed this year?

as chilled blasts return,
lehman hides its gift, under
the Fed x-mas tree

Soup for Paulson's goldilocks

just tripped up our golden snitch,
cuddle your nest egg

a paradoxical science

as the weather sweats,
economy treads thin ice,
thoughts of a chilled doom.

boarding school for the debt-babies

shunting debt upon
those with once-smarmy coffers,
be back next summer.

Annuling a once-healthy relationship

our snappy gator
grows too large and eats too much,
flush it down the drain!

extending liquidity to the titanic

lifejacket loans splash,
among financial icebergs,
light attracts 'tension.
