Your poem conveys the opinion of many for sure. I like the beat of the piece - quick and crisp, reminiscent of the fast-paced life in Wall Street.

Comment from Helen Tan
I enjoyed the images and thoughts evoked in this naani, good luck in the contest. =D
Unscrupulous men
In their ivory towers
I like the contrasting images these lines present - the pristine, glistening towers that house the dark dealings of "unscrupulous men".
Manipulate numbers
Creative accounting and insider trading come to mind.
Growing fat on our dollars
Definitely! =D

Oh don't get me started! This is an awesome true naani poem! You tell them what is really up and we are more than aware but yet nothing gets done! They are put in cushiony prisons and get a hand slap for stealing millions of dollars from people who can't afford it! Then they are released to do it again! Great poem got me all worked up! Good luck in the contest.

Thanks, Betty! I'm glad it struck a chord. I know lots of people that lost their you-know-what's - and THEN some because of these types of guys (and gals!) on Wall Street! Glad you could appreciate the poem. Have a lovely day. ~Tricia
Comment from Van
Great Naani. Precise message. Adequately done in less than twenty five syllables.
Content: excellent
Flow: What's not to flow in shorts? lol
Mechanics: spot on syllable count
