Late News
Now have you heard
How slander slams?
In crafty words,
A person damned!
News media takes
A stab too much;
Cuts now can make
Scandal as such.
What of good name
In that man's poise?
Now who's to blame
For your wrong choice?
Too late we see
How sad the times;
Feel free to flee
Such mangled chimes.
In just one swing
Mad moments break;
Surge of mad fling
Lights burning stake.
Now watch this space
As alarm sounds;
Set out to face
The fakes that trace.
