Grimes has shared some “financial poetry” on the subject of the ongoing GameStop shares saga.
Shares in the US video game retailer soared last week after a Reddit-organised group of small traders bought GameStop shares in bulk in response to hedge fund short-sellers on Wall Street betting against it – resulting in big losses for a number of major investors.
Grimes shared a few poetic verses on the subject of GameStop last week in response to the story, initially tweeting: “In the vast ocean / My tear is a drop / My dollar a single photon / Of the light of GameStop”.
In the vast ocean
My tear is a drop
My dollar a single photon
Of the light of GameStop— 𝑪𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒆 𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒆࿎ (@Grimezsz) January 28, 2021
She continued her “financial poetry” by sharing more poetic words on the saga – you can see her tweet below.
It’s not as popular right now
But Bitcoins also a cash cow
And even though she’s fallen some
I still grew my initial sumI’m told that I’m on the spectrum
I catch crypto like ash ketchumCrypto king, like Kim dot com
Get me some etherium!— 𝑪𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒆 𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒆࿎ (@Grimezsz) January 28, 2021
Writing in response to one fan who enquired about “what’s going on” more generally, Grimes later said that she was currently “finishing [her new] record and making the visuals”.
Finishing record and making the visuals , I also broke my arm and got covid and a bunch of other stuff . Hang w x but I guess I should return to the digital realm

Grimes also spoke about her next music project during a YouTube Q&A late last week, hinting that she may release new music in the next few months – coronavirus-permitting.
“MUSIC IS READY BUT BUSINESS IS NOT,” she wrote. “ALSO DUNNO IF CAN SHOOT MUSIC VIDEOS WITH COVID SO WE SEE.”
In other GameStop news, a movie about the shares saga is already in the works after MGM reportedly acquired a book proposal from New York Times best-selling author Ben Mezrich.
