Have you ever wondered why
we clamour and grab for a few bits
of paper with black marks of meaning
splattered across the page
Have you ever wondered why
it is called the page
was not a page a boy who carried personal effects for his master
and why the reliance on pictures
do they enhance of distract from meaning
is there meaning
What makes the news
is it the prose or the picture
blurred distinctions that no longer exist
news or story
a news story they say
fact or fiction
what is the story!
