miners’ lamps cut through the dark,

earth yields its bright soul.

Southern tides shift out,

I'll go long July Soybeans.

Ooo! Frost in Brazil.

Trading in Central Park

---------------------------------

Should I place the trade?

I watch the snow fall outside,

--It's a play on Edward M. Saunder's "Stock Prices and Wall Street Weather".

Soft rain on stone roofs

coins golden like honeybees

balance found in bloom.

fear of hard losses

the graph's right edge smiles coyly

dreams of being right

Frost creeps up the curve

Stalking horse watches the herd

Hooves shatter thin ice

Yen carry unwinds

Forest of debt is burning

Monkeys cull or feast?
