In China, a pickle of price and rate,
Stimulus seems to dance too late.
Like ale quite flat and wine gone sour,
Battles deflation in each hour.
The dragon Russia, Ukraine the knight,
In a war game with no end in sight.
Trump, a new king, doth dare to vow,
Like honeyed mead to end strife now.
In Amsterdam, cries of 'Jew Hunt' heard,
Dark notes in a song like a raven bird.
Investigations in full swing, like a thirsty monk's tavern fling,
Seek answers to this troubling thing.
