Economy is hurting I read the other day.
A very famous surgeon who took a cut in pay.
~~~~~~~~~~
A paper business folded. I'm sorry but it must
A baker's short of dough and Playtex has gone bust.
~~~~~~~~~~
Jiffy Brake is offered; there aren't any bids.
The reason, I am thinking, is they are on the skids.
~~~~~~~~~~
Balloons just aren't selling, a very fine creation.
They've gotten much too pricey, a victim of inflation.
~~~~~~~~~~
Tobacco's selling madly. Its stock price is no joke.
Because it's doing badly, it's going up in smoke.
~~~~~~~~~~
The market now for girdles, consider if you please,
Has overcome some hurdles, but now it's felt the squeeze.
~~~~~~~~~~
Executives at 3 M must cancel their vacation.
A sudden turn of business brought a sticky situation.
