Lines Upon Learning Of A Celebrity Break-Up
“Poetry is a language in which man explores his own amazement” — Christopher Fry
I never really cared that much
For tabloid celeb news
It doesn’t change my life as such
To learn whose spouse screwed whose
Weddings, babies, drugs, divorce
It’s all the same to me
I see enough in life’s real course
To skip what’s on TV
I’ve never read a People mag
I think I’d just feel wrong
I’ve looked past every grocery rag
Despite the line being long
It seems I just don’t see the point
In learning things about
Our pretty vapid movie stars
And who is in and out
I guess what I am trying to say
Is I don’t give a shit
And now I will be on my way
I’ve got my rhyme for “Pitt”
