My head’s in a swirl
From the news of this world
All it really means to me
Is a nightmare fantasy
What’s real is surreal
I don’t know the deal
The TV broadcasts news
The printed ‘Times’ its views
The radio blasts many voices
The net provides alt choices
All versions of the same theme
A distinctly demonic meme
Choose any media sage
All spew the same garbage
Reporting tragedies and angst
Or frivolous gossip and pranks
But at the end of the day
As wise Solomon assayed
Everything having been said
And texted, heard and read
The conclusion is simply thus
Just one ‘news’ is a must
It is true, real and Good
It well-nourishes like food
It builds up and delights
And brings light to the night
‘Come near, come hear’
What this ‘Jesus’ declares
‘Good news! Get yours!’
‘I have conquered the world!’
