O-I,
suffering from bottles being too dear,
shuts down to just one stack.
Kirsten steps up,
for the citizens of Adelaide,
and knocks down that stack
before it can wrangle a deal,
or the dollar's fall
brings bottles and more stacks back.




*Kirsten, I believe, is Danish for ‘Respect'.
Kirsten Alexander, mayor of Charles Sturt Council, standing for re-election
O-I is the glass manufacturer that shouldn't be here because of how it fouls the air.
