The Autumn Leaves

early Thanksgiving
extends our Christmas shopping
credit cards beckon

American Financial Reporter, Tokyo

Our business plan
Is based on not knowing
What we do not know

French Sales Manager, Tokyo

customer complains
but is still a customer
silent he vanishes

a few sake helps
to smooth the relationship
but gosh I am dead

Advertising Entrepreneur, Canada

Entrepreneur's cry:
Vault sky high without a net
Make the big dream real

Non-Profit Manager, U.S.

A nonprofit firm

Has no net present value

But great interest

American Financial Reporter in Tokyo

They buy Treasuries      
To keep the yuan in check
But we will die with more toys

Brokers yield wisdom
Buy the rumor, sell the fact
They laugh last, or cry trying

American Entrepreneur in Tokyo

Dawn breaks.  I do not.
I work through the night each day.
Weaker, week by week.

Amino acids
are the building blocks of life -
my life - my income.

Non-toxic soaps are
Environmentally safe,
not profitable.

bow each other go ahead
both now miss the train

collide running to the train
both now miss the train
