Hedge



Hedge is not the first word 
To be tortured into a grotesque, 
Antipathetic  refutation of its intended meaning.
I recall a bushy green wall.


If “hedging” translates into risk reduction
There can be only one reason:
To knowingly mislabel the intention.
Is its purpose to hide from view?

What do we propose as a suitable punishment
For the knave who would so deceive us?
Surely stoning is not above consideration.
Wealth that has been stolen from the people?

If hedge funds were performing the function
Inherent in the word “hedge”
Our trust would not have been violated.
Has not a trust been violated?
