Never court the press
not wearing bullet-proof vest
You’ll be under house arrest
at best…
At worse
you’ll be accursed
be topic of gossip
for every Harry and Dick
Media scruples?
Entice gullible
Give story twist
Sales become brisk
Examples can be given
of countless victims
But why cause pain
to the naïve again
The press may argue
Why? All we do
is provide a service
Disperse mist
Also, bear in mind
many run to us inclined
towards fame, fortune
“High Noon”
Aye! The sting
Scorpion’s tail vs. purse strings
Oh Maddy!
Tragedy
Torment, anguish,
Bowl and fish
Parents, twins,
Will diary sing?
Can’t help but speculate
as events fluctuate
Can’t help but wonder
Looking for clarity tomorrow...
