Deflation’s Embrace

Title: Deflation’s Embrace

In the land where red dragons soar,
China’s fears of deflation soar.
Consumer prices, a steep downfall,
Three years gone, the steepest of all.

Once vibrant hues now fade to gray,
As deflation’s whispers hold sway.
The market’s pulse, a rhythmic pause,
Inflation’s grip begins to withdraw.

Trade winds whisper, secrets they hold,
Stories untold, now begin to unfold.
A dance of prices, like a brittle flame,
Fanning the fears of economic shame.

A shrinking purse, a nation’s plight,
As consumer’s dreams fade from sight.
Economic woes, entangled web,
Deflation’s grip, a tightening ebb.

But hope still glimmers, a fragile light,
In the darkest hour, it shines so bright.
Resilience rises, a nation’s stand,
Guided by courage, held by its hand.

China’s heart beats, with bated breath,
Deflation’s grasp, an impending death.
Yet in the face of this fearsome tide,
A spirit unyielding, it shall not hide.
