First NPR’s Studio360 did it with haiku (featuring input from Bankruptcy Bill).  Now the NY Times has an article with reader-submitted poetry about the economic downturn.

Anxiously I rise

To represent my client

In Judge Beatty’s court

Listen to one of Bankruptcy Bill’s haiku read on the “Haiku-ing It To The Man” feature on NPR’s Studio360.  (Starts with about 1:31 left in the feature.)

Here’s the story lead from the Studio360 website:

Haiku-ing It to the Man

A few weeks ago we asked listeners to submit original haiku inspired by the state of the economy. Dozens poured in: our own unscientific proof that the financial crisis is a boon for creativity. Here are some of our favorites. (http://www.studio360.org/episodes/2009/02/13)

It appears that Bankruptcy Bill’s haiku is not the only source of poetry drawing inspiration from the state of the economy.

NPR’s Studio 360 has a story this weekend about Katy Lederer, a poet who spent several years working for a hedge fund and now has a book of poetry titled Heaven-Sent Leaf on the topic of modern money-making.  You can learn more about her by following her blog at http://heavensentleaf.blogspot.com/.

Great work courts success.

Yet one  thing still irks Lynn.  “It’s

Mr. Lopucki.”
