I'm just an angel
What I am doing
Here among devils and ghouls
Why punish me now?
I'm just an angel
During all my pure long life
Inside the City
Never killed a man
Nor abused any woman
Nor stolen a child
Just played with money
Of other guys and lost it
In what were seconds
Only five billion
Dollars from trusting people
Also from my bank
You think I must be
In hell because of this game?
And I deserve hell?
Was in comp "Haikus of Hell"

No angels in the City...
Great twist on the comp theme, though, Malin. Good luck!

Sure, no angel in the City. This poem is in reference with Jerôme Kerviel, a french trader who spoiled 5 billions of Euros in a few seconds... And try, after judgment, to get the image of an angel, for the people, saying it is his employer, a big french bank who decided this action...
