Notes About The Poem

Better to write poetry than watch nonstop news!

Media Blah Blah Blah

MEDIA blah blah blah

pixels preened
behind the screen
                  bovine’s masticating cud
               meadows buzz
           with fervent grass
lush and bombastic

each host coerces
                         the baton
mouths go on and on

chlorophyll on careening tongue
                       resurgence of bile
coterminous commentary regurgitates...

i’m caught in the loop

i press a button
     the curtain falls

         i sip “soup”

It's all bilge water to me. Nice write, Mrs Kim. I try not to watch the news. I wouldn't like it anyway.

Always amazed when I'm too busy to watch and guess what...the worlds doesn't revolve around the media, the politicians, etc... etc... and life looks lovely!

I'm right there with ya, Sister! Poetry is so much more substantive and fulfilling that a bunch of a**hats in Washington who don't know what they're doing and could care less about us.

"bovine’s masticating cud" Probably one of the best descriptions I've seen. :) This was funny Kim.
