Watching the News

Glued to the TV
Can't stop surfing news channels
Want to know it all

Nothing on TV
Can hold my attention like
MSNBC

CNN has me
Mesmerized with interviews
Larry King is 'King'

But it's all fake news
My apologies to King
He does tell the truth

The Five on FOX news
Is where I tune to for truth
They don't do trash news

Read the news paper
No truth in there to be found
Pinocchio news

Glued, screwed and tattooed
Pinocchio's on TV
Spewing lies and more trash news

Channels 3, 6, 10
They got it all wrong again
BBC's your friend

I will wipe my butt
With the toilet paper times
And flush the toilet

The old system worked
Trump had the 'trains run on time'
People made money

Now a new regime
Will destroy all that Trump did
It's socialism

Pinocchio Joe
And the Harris puppet show
Will do nothing good

They will raise taxes
And they'll destroy this country
Make friends with China

Export our jobs there
More people onto welfare
Do they even care?

Corono Virus
Destroys and kills some of us
When will it be gone?

'Beneath the veil' and
'Abandon all hope' over
And over again

Nostradamus said,
"Two towers in new city
Will fall in future"

I must understand
The psyche of hate for me
The terrorist mind

Where such evil's born
How and why it came to be
God-forsaken land

But the point is mute
There is no understanding
No sense to be made

I can only watch
Hear and see insanity
All on my TV

My eyes are blood-shot
Staring at the TV screen
Need to get a life...

I fear for the world
Men, women, boys and girls
I fear the Reaper...
