RISK PREMIA CHANCES:
Original 09 28 2010


Risk premia –in China the number of
Babies per family -in the fringes of cities
Along the interstates down from the
River’s bend to bridges from the
Mountains’ descend to the valleys of
The eagle’s pry -In the Americas the
Number of female heads of households
In the year empiric and dear –old black
Women elementary school teachers…
Homemaker moonlighters taught children
Best to learn and play and how best to
Work to care for homes one day –two
Thousand –two thousand and five
Two thousand and ten two thousand
And twenty –the number sowed in the
Bible that fell into good ground and
Brought forth fruitfulness –some a
Hundredfold some sixtyfold and some
Thirtyfold -in temples of commerce
Inventory of housing fails where the
Blind and the money count each others
Spells –the old frame houses full of
Infrastructure and small rooms full from
The lode of taxes and labor paid - inventory
Excess is in the markup on very old houses
Pushing extremes to false demand
Twentieth century homes exceeding prices
Frozen on twenty-first century bedrooms each
With baths -We travel into the dark despair
Of our own making –God will we take the tea
To tote along in freedom on our own path
Making -highway express free from risk premia.
