Change Management, by Elisa Gabbert & Kathleen Rooney

If nothing is done, this recession could
metamorphose into a fabulous
orgy of poverty. Here in my cube,
the view could inspire poetry—if
the graph rises, then the graph must fall &
it’s all so grand, a waltz-like dance. I feel 
blurry. Whirling through the gala ball of
corporate responsibility symbol-
ogy is, maybe, the best kind of sad
ending for this modern match-girl story.
