Inflation’s Dance

Title: Inflation’s Dance

As spending soars on each shopfront street,
Inflation awakens from its slumbering seat,
Through the market’s pulse and fervent desire,
Price tags ascend, flames of value grow higher.
Lost in the tempest of currency’s sway,
Debts rise swiftly, chaining us night and day.

The dance of numbers, accounting sincere,
A ballet of finance, driven by fear,
With each coin’s worth diminishing fast,
Inflation’s embrace grips our spirits, steadfast.
A cycle relentless, like the tides on the shore,
Debt’s weighty burden befalls us evermore.

Inflation, the orchestra’s furious beat,
Spurring on spending in a frenzied feat,
In the marketplace’s symphony, we play,
Trading our future for the present display.
Cloaked in illusion, we chase sinking dreams,
Ensnared by debts, adrift in turbulent streams.

Desire and need entangled in our minds,
A paradoxical tale that no one unwinds,
As spending flourishes, inflation knows,
Debt’s shadow lengthens, crushing our repose.
Yet still we dance, oblivious and entranced,
Locked in the embrace of inflation’s advance.
