The flow of odds

The roll of dice

Once owned by gods

Now bought for a price

The market made manifest

All the world to ingest

The vast flow of mana

Leads our people to jhana

Led where once they were lost

Yet this within this vast machine

Not everything can gleam

Upon spring grass, frost

For market resolutions most foul

Made people gnash teeth and howl

Where some see a great gain

Others see a great drain

Where some see a great boon

Others see a great ruin

Where some see a great wealth

Others see a great dearth

The markets are manifold

A great engine of wealth

Where some reap in abundance

Others reap in penance

Where some net a great gain

Others net a great pain

Where some see a great fortune

Others see a great misfortune

Where some find their pleasure

Others find their measure

For what is in the markets we can never know

For all the markets can never show

The great mystery of Manifold Markets

Where luck and skill forever interlock

Where some take a great risk

Others take a great loss

Where some find a great blessing

Others find a great curse

The markets of Manifold ever churn

Where luck and skill intertwine and burn
