Economy Limericks for Poetry Month

Economy Limerick # 1

Recession turned into depression
The country makes little progression
But I think what we need
To do the best deed
Is a Prez in the economics profession.

Economy Limerick # 2

Economy needs to revive,
The stock market took a big dive,
This fall has to stop
'Cause the market could drop
As low as a eunuch's sex drive.

    If the first one made the situation we face now very clear... the second was a much needed medicine, a good laugh. Nice combo-- eunuch and sex-drive -- but exactly like the performace of our economy these days! Brava! (I want to be your friend since I need one with martial arts skills, LOL) Nice to meet ya!
