Our Swannie sometimes buggers up his economic sums,
resulting in some grumbles, but that’s only flappin’ gums.
The Poms have trimmed their hedge funds, and they’ve also hedged their bets,
but now they’re whingin’ loudly havin’ racked up massive debts.
With one eye on Slovenia, in case its bank funds falter,
the Euro-zone is nervous with the other eye on Malta.
An olive branch for Italy and Spain could do no harm,
unless they take the other path, and once more Greece their palm.
It’s all enough to make affluent Germans whinge and wine;
the Cypriots have got the shits, just hear that Cyprus pine.
But there's only one GFC that’s worrying to me . . .
It’s Easter Monday, versus Hawthorn at the MCG.

ps Happy Ishtar to all . . . and happy fooddy season to Nev
my perspective has been called far more derogatory things than a "wry prism" before.
