Greatest Story Ever Told

what a perfect story to take everybody's mind
and transport us from problems that numb
Mencken would have been wordless
Winchell would have been dumb

The Octomom!
a media phenom
it's the hottest story since Mother Mary
dominoed

here is a girl who looks like she
botoxed her lips with hot-glue
has more kids than Jesus had disciples
and she's a virgin too

Pulitzer or Hearst would have died for a story like this
It didn't take Dr. Phil long to glom on
and every other quack expert is dissecting
the poor woman and hating her because she is loving it

[Doreen Peri]

best poem i've read by you in long time

THIS is a poem ...
