Disappearing News
Disappearing News A curious thing happenswhen I read or watch the news,when I read or watch the newsthings seem different. The story bout the WMD'sthat were found in Iraq?Not ever mentioned again.Was it hogwash?Who knows? I thought for sureKatrina would causea second civil war.Alas, people lootedand proved their inhumanity. When I was a boy;a young boy, that is,when I was a boythe news merely repeated itself.Now it simply disappears. How short a man's attention span must be,to worry nothing of this inconsistency;or the factthat no one seems to spell or punctuatethe paper anymore.
