[The following poem should be read in the highest tone of voice possible,
as if speaking to a small child]
I love reading modern "News Headlines"
followed by articles that are meant
to inform or instruct us about
how to think or feel.
...(um...)...
This one is particularly humorous--
or at least it would be--
if it weren't so reflective
of how pathetic we are.
...(we...)...
Oh, wow, a country making such demands:
"We shall resist them! How dare they!"
(Yet...some will concede...)
Sure they will concede!
...(duh!)...
For all of you ignoramuses out there,
Let me spell it out for you:
T.H.E.Y. (say it together now): "THEY"
O.W.N. (say it: "Own") U.S. (Together: "Us").
...(whaaa?!)...
What, are you shocked? Flabbergasted?
Can you not put 2+2 together?
Oh, that's right...You can't.
You have to be told what to think and how to feel.
...(sigh...)...
Okay, little children, listen well:
We sold this country out years ago--
It's not ours anymore...
And you'll never know it until it's headlined.
