Alchemy

My financial situation does seem bleak

A new enterprise I choose to seek

For alchemy was my favoured plan

It did not make me a wealthy man !

As I tried to create riches beyond compare

A chemical reaction gave me fluorescent hair !

The final product after all that I went through

Was a vile smelling, brown slimey goo !

So now I struggle to find a solution to my woes

What I will try next heaven only knows !

But while I contemplate what life has in store

The share price of my company has hit the floor !!!
