Depressive calculus
as maths peel
like a moon
of onions.
Euro cycles slide
as politicians
pedal out
the dark crux.
October lightning
strikes, rain pours
washes away
footsie pain.
This 2008 currency
change daily
wars a waiting
to be lost.
October's month
not the start
of yearly sweat
geopolitical sex.
Up and up
and up and
down and down
and down.
