the weather channel

the news
is never ending.
mostly bad news, except
for the cat
stuck in the tree
rescued by the fire department.

i'd like to wake up one morning
and turn
on the television

and hear the man or woman say,
there is no
breaking news today.

go back to bed.
we'll let you know if anything
has changed.

basically though, you're
all screwed.

i understand now why my mother
watched
only the weather
channel.
