#NaPoWriMo – Day 28: the WHCA* dinner

I missed WHCA* again this year –
no poets or librarians were invited –
truth and information again were in
short supply. And though you’d think reporters
would have taken up the slack –
No way. They dropped the ball again.

No invitation reached my mailbox –
no poets or librarians were invited –
just frowning light-dazed reporters
and foul-mouthed comedians.

No poets or librarians were invited
to WHCA* this year. Again. Too bad.
Just glitziness (is that a word?),
fake body parts, and phony platitudes.
