Jaap's Original Poem Sauce:

This Is News

This is News from a wide angle camera lens.
This is News from a teletype whose ink words smear
on the fingerprints of copy interns.
This is News from the left, grainy and out of focus.
This is News from the right, raining and out of locusts.

This is News from an anchor man.
This is News from a junkie.
This is News from miles away
that insists you are responsible.

This is News from inside fishnets,
board rooms in secret, erect
sensitivities and protests.

This is News from every angle,
above, beneath, in the cupboards,
in the dangling of News on fish hooks,
come and get it,
Entertainment!

This is News with secret compartments.
This is News the world will consume
in easily digested pieces.

This is the News.
This is the News.
Come and Listen.
