World Economic Forum Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)
World Economic Forum
The world economic climate
is slipping down a slippery slope
all blind Swiss analysis sees
is seamless digital PC data shifts
iron age fossil furnace defences
are melting massive ice caps
global warming sea level rising
corrective measures made lukewarm.
Who will take the heat?
Who will weather the storm?

A serious message in this poem, global warming is killing our planet indeed

Thanks for bringing this into a poetic context. The conceptual tools of economists are not flexible enough to deal with moral quandaries. As you show, poetry has the bandwidth to confront existential quandaries and economic trends.
