No News Would Be Good News Poem by Ted Sheridan

I am damn near sixty years of age.....
and I am getting fed up with all the crap in my life....
Crap like....the length of my hair....
I've worn it short for years...but no more...let it grow
it has nothing to do with my politics...
I will still vote conservative
though not necessarily Republican....
All those guys lie to suit their various agendas....
buying votes with pork....
I can't stand the smell of bacon anymore
I am also going to give up watching the news....
Insert one Anna Nicole Smith joke here....
I'll see you one and raise you a Baghdad bombing....
The news is corrupted by politics....
Drive by media....Left vs. Right
So help me God....
Thirty three people were just shot to death
on a college campus.....
and the Mr. Happy fellow wants to know....
'Can you describe for us the mood? '

Screw it...I'm going off somewhere simple and grow my hair.....
