I just came back from Haiti
But I’m not some foreign dignitary
So, no story there
I never saw so much broken concrete
Broken spirits, tears; defeat
But it’s already been detailed
No overkill to spare
Especially when Jesse James
May have possibly had an affair
And Congress is pushing through or cussing up healthcare
Now those are topics people want to share
But Haiti? No story there.
Children being abducted,
But not by Baptist missionaries
Only sick, depraved men (many Chinese)
Put that story on the back burner
It may develop into something further
But for now, there’s really no story
People dying without glory
After awhile that’s just old and boring
Readers look to see
Conflicting semantics; argued civilly
Uplifting stories about humanity
Fixable causes in society
Outlandish behavior in celebrities
Political crossfire and calamities
Weather, sports, and death reports
Comics and a crossword….
Not another sad report about Haiti (they’ve already heard)
No story there.
(My heart is still feeling for people in Haiti and wishing others weren’t forgetting)
