the poisoned pen

there a few if any
real
newsmen
anymore,
true journalists
out there
on the beat with
pen and pad
in hand,
going in for the story.
nothing
less, nothing more.
typing it
up for the daily news.
to feed
to morning eyes
over coffee.
letting them decide
which way
to lean, 
from these
written truths.
not telling them
how to live their
lives.
