When the paper arrives,
the news is rumors mixed with fact
strangely sprinkled in seasoned sections,
-scientist stare into atoms face
electrons report
news and evenings
fantasy,
Where the paper caught
the bridge fall,
the tower topple
and that strange
virus renamed
to killer status-
Oh yeah,
the cop,
who could forget them,
strolling streets with the tough voice
looking for vagrants-
names and addresses
and papers,
more paper-
I feel guilty thinking
I missed it.
