saved newspapers

old papers
stored away in an older box.
no lock
no key with which to turn,
black and soft
the sides are.
news headlines.
tall blocked letters
in black.
a war is over, a president
shot dead.
a man is on
the moon.
such news it was.
life changing
swiftly
before your young eyes,
strangely unstopped
by any headline.
