Yesterdays News

there was an accident just down the road from where I lived a kid on a motorbike crashed into a parked car and died later on that night the next day I read about it in the paper a full color photograph depicting a crowd of people starring at the mangled remains of twisted metal and debris strewn across the street then underneath some awful reporter had written an article purley out of self-interest it was repetitive insentive boring crap badly wriiten and even the headline "KILLER CRASH" had nothing to do with the victim the next day there was a story about a family who had been raising money for a local charity there was no reason why their story shouldn't have been there but somehow after yesterday's news it just din't seem appropriate *penned by Scarecrow Joe
