The News

My newspaper's gone digital;

I get it on my Kindle,

Causing calm reflection at my

Breakfast to fast dwindle.

I cannot hide behind it

If I want to stifle talk;

It is not good for wrapping

When the dog must take a walk.

I have to make the font so big –

It really is a crime;

I almost have to read it

Just one letter at a time.

Spare the trees and spoil the news

Is how it's gotta be –

I guess I'll watch the talking heads

On local NBC.
