The news is not good
the news is speculation
the news is scandalous
the news is ridiculous
the news is horrifying
everything is the news
how to separate news
from the not-so-newsworthy
everyone wants 
to pick up the news
and bite into it
to check its authenticity
everyone wants today's 
news to go away
they push it 
into the recesses 
of the body
to make it through 
the day.

Why is the world
inside this house
so attractive to things
that don't belong?
Do they see here the mirror
of their own confusion?
Or have we created
our own subduction zone,
drawing things beyond
control slowly under.
