If I refuse to watch the news
It’s not that I’m uncaring,
But rather that some people’s views
Can lead me to despairing.
A late report about the Court
Will get my teeth to gnashing
And tales of states that won’t abort
Will have my spirits crashing.
I do indeed take time to read
The paper so I’m knowing
The highlights of the daily screed
And how the world is going.
But on TV I will not see
Events that are unfolding,
For words are quite enough for me,
The images withholding.
