The whole banking situation has gone haywire in America, and its strange how one minute a bank will be perfectly fine and then out of nowhere its gone bankrupt. Some would say its a conspiracy, yet others would say its just how times are these days, while yet others would say its the end of the world that has begun.
Despite what one might want to believe, the fact that these things are happening should state to us all that something way bigger than what any president can control is happening.
I bank with Washington mutual aka WAMU, and this whole J.P. Morgan buyout has me asking quite alot of questions, the most major one is WHY? And a few others would be, well what does this mean for me, how do I the consumer benefit, or is this another tactic to put money into the hands of those who are already filthy rich.
With so many questions and no answers its hard for one to even be sure of what to do next.
How does one begin to sort through all of this clutter?

Snow falls from the darkened,
pink-tinged firmament.
Covering an already all white, cold world.
The wind blows the snow; blanketing
my sight with white.
I hear your voice, calling my name.
There-
There you are- you could have
been anyone or anything or be with
anyone.
And yet-
yet, you are here with me.
You are electricity and I-
I am just a light bulb.
Amongst the snow-filled, cold world, it is forever spring.
Trees bud with fresh leaves
Green shards push through the white
Red roses blossom full
The sun heats us
A quick storm passes
EXPLODING-
with sound and jagged bolts
Sweet, warm rain drenches us.
We lay together, breathing slow,
living in our forever spring
in this cold world.
