I heard some things today
That pained me in such away
The Croc Hunter died from a stingray
All that came from my mouth was, NO WAY
The trouble in the Middle East
The fighting seems to increase
Ive been thinking hard on 9/11
The news has quickly become darkened
A 14-year-old girl disappeared
The gas prices rose just as I feared
The Democrats and the Republicans are at it again
There was a strike from the laborer workmen
Floods from excessive rain
Insurgence stifled not beaten
Pastor faces new molestation charges
I havent heard good news in ages
Its all negative propaganda
Its all hurtful drama
I cant stand to watch it day in and day out
I dont think I can live that way. Thats not what Im about
I dislike the spin the media puts on things
And the deep dark depression it brings
When am I going to ever see
Something that pleases me
When I turn on the television
That's better than Cheaper by the Dozen
I dislike the news

Amen to that!! Rarely will you find the news on at this house its a bunch of crap! Used to be back in the day the news always started off with a good deed done a local hero or the like not anymore.
Nicely done

| I never listen to the news or buy papers, I wish we could have a good news channel for us.. The thing is we would not be in reality then as the news is nearly all bad.. Really could relate to your poem, great write. xxx |

This very well convers the question of 'what is this world coming to?'
Great job. I like the mood, kind of morbid and bored and just plain tired of basically a depressing world.
Well done |
