Glitter Glutter News




Glitter Glutter News


Hear ye! Hear ye!

we be modern day
town criers

mass media style

we got hyperbole
wrapped in hype


pretty poofy 
hair doos

playing the 
newsie part

reading fluff
off teleprompters

riding the
24 hour
news cycle

we are always on

we never sleep

for all eternity

lot's of time
to fill

so we

circulate
regurgitate


specks of events

that pass for news

inflate them
into today's
end of the world
crisis

we then

over analyze
and dissect

every angle

so you can 
pretend 
to be informed

so you can impress
your ignorant
friends

so you 
can be 
an honorary
newsie too
