Quote:Lover who lived in closet
charged with killing husband
Man spent a month among mothballs
before fatal encounter, police say
Symmetry, rhythm, suspense, and it even
evokes a universal emotional response.
Yes. Definitely a form of modern poetry.
I wonder how many people who read sensational newspapers
realize that they are actually captivated by lyrical poetry,
subliminally rented and sold by the sing-song tragedy and creativity
of our idle killing time.
A haiku for fifty cents
is worth all our demons
to know.
