In Your Face (poem)

In Your Face

I suppose the government
often has been
this incompetent

but in the past
it wasn't thrown
in my face

without analysis
by a media
loyal only

to its advertisers
every crackpot
getting a story

six feet under
Murrow Cronkite
Huntley Brinkley

get trampled by
so much stupidity
there's not even room

for them to roll over
in their graves

--Charles Deemer
