Well I’ll climb the corporate ladder,
To the power hungry bar,
And I’ll sup the tasty wonder,
Of the takeover tar tar.

Over there’s the Asian market?
I can’t find it, up or down?
And if the eggs are in one basket,
Share the omelets, pass around.

Double dip into recession,
You’ll be discharged on the spot,
Whilst a spicy new confession,
Deflates souffled stocks just bought.

I’ll assess the situation,
Of the tables, find a seat,
Then the flag of every nation,
Is my napkin as I eat.

Have you tried the new born country?
How about some foreign gin?
And I Trust we’ll play Monopoly,
After munching our luncheon.

Now some say I’m power hungry,
But if fat kills … I must post-pone,
So when they say I’m power hungry,
Just ask me, I’ll say big-boned.

A poet's work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep.

One question: what made you want to write this?

Very creative. I like the rhyming in this.
