In The News
by Wolfgang Glinka
Ready for your close up?
Your fifteen minutes’ fame?
That photo opportunity.
It’s fun, a laugh, OK?
The parachute jump,
The lottery win,
Run naked for a crowd.
It’s fun, a laugh, OK?
Kiss a baby,
Cut a ribbon,
Hand out that giant cheque.
It’s fun, I think, OK?
Cry for the camera,
Show us your scars,
Some cash here for your grief.
Not fun I know, OK?
Dead babies, screaming men,
Bombs, brick dust, hospital beds,
In not-here, war-torn lands.
No fun, don’t look, OK?
Grinning leaders shaking hands,
Everything just apple pie,
We are the nice guys, vote for us.
Not fun, not true, OK?
