Poem constructed by Elton Camp
Let us hope that they will soon decide:
“Couple Slain; Police Suspect Homicide”
Surely safety standards this abridges:
“Red Tape Holds Up New Bridges”
We surely expect that the voltage won’t be as large:
“Man Struck By Lightning Faces Battery Charge”
Before you eat, give them whacks:
“Kids Make Nutritious Snacks”
This headline is certain to make you laugh:
“Local High School Dropouts Cut in Half”
The community was shocked when this they read:
“Typhoon Rips Through Cemetery; Hundreds Dead”
Not enough training the following suggests:
“Lawmen from Mexico Barbecue Guests”
It’s a disease of humans one assumes:
“Lung Cancer in Women Mushrooms”
As Abel got from Cain:
“Man is fatally slain”
The warning should be sounded louder:
“Milk Drinkers are Turning to Powder”
When she’s sick, she’ll be lots more fun:
“Never Withhold Herpes from Loved One”
His honor should someone impeach?
“NJ Judge to Rule on Nude Beach”
Surprises seem they will never cease:
“Children Alleged Shot by Police”
Headline writers easily get into quite a plight
If what they compose doesn’t come out right
