The Theme Music Blues!

The Theme Music Blues!

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

Get ready to spew!

"
                                                               

The Baltimore riots are just the latest example

 

Of gut-turning repetitive depression that comes

 

From turning on the T.V. to CNN

 

Bilge pump should be at the ready

 

All the American networks do it, but only CNN, most of the time,

 

Plays their own depression-shadow music to go with

 

The looped disaster they play over and over, and over

 

Apparently, nothing else is happening, anywhere!

 

I know I've complained about this before,

 

But their nauseating drumbeat is repeated with each

 

New disaster anywhere in the world, although if it's

 

Here, look out, you'll get a migraine, and The Theme Music Blues!

At least it gives us a respite from Bruce Jenner...
