Voodoo Trade Poem by Mason Maestro

Aiding and abetting our misery
The largest theft in history
Thanks to ZIRP and the Quantitative Ease
Skimming billions as they please
Middle-class scrimp and savers
To pimping large hog speculators

Corporate asset owners stand stoic
The financial press, nevertheless,
Finds something vaguely heroic
On enabling the grandest larceny ever
Under Watch of Yellen who ain't quite clever
She sounds like a well-trained functionary
A technician of latinate vocabulary
Articulation as a good lawyer
A decent metallurgist, an honest métier
She might have been able to hold her head high
Instead, the poor woman sits atop the sty
Condemned to ply her voodoo trade
pretending that it's scientifically laid
Feigning that it improved the economy
Interest rate scoundrel, Rothschild progeny

Like stealing stars from the celestial mass
Hiding away the needle from the compass;
The economy was soon lost at sea
And this Voodoo trade shackles the free
