Ink On My Hands
The Pleasure of Reading News in Print
Ink on my hands
A wonderful pleasure
That appears to be
Gone forever
No newspaper on Sunday
What am I to do
Open my laptop
Throw at it my shoe
Lingering with a coffee
Rattling the pages
Sunday morning
Was a day for the ages
Google and Yahoo
MSN et al
Now offer me the news
But I don’t hear their call
I’m afraid I’m a hold out
So searching I will go
For a paper full of news
That I can call my own
A wonderful pleasure
That appears to be
Gone forever
No newspaper on Sunday
What am I to do
Open my laptop
Throw at it my shoe
Lingering with a coffee
Rattling the pages
Sunday morning
Was a day for the ages
