the bankers changed suits
grabbing their insiders
& raising the extractive industries
up to the highest altar
forcing
grotesque contours
to the land
from its dark bowels
to the sun of its mountain tops
a
hangman's noose
a
fait accomplioutlives the judge
posing now
as a lariat
changing colors regularly
to match the new panache
threading the new hipsters
in
for another go around
the
growling heard
is
the same old machinery chewing & spitting
covering the tracks
like any addiction
