When nothing’s helpful, nothing helps;
when Yellen talks green, markets yelp.
Once again, CPI soars;
rates head up three quarters more.
Printing bills as they go higher,
throws more gas upon the fire.
Economic cycle fun:
nothing new under the sun.
Few things in life are truly free;
at least I have my poetry.
