Bad news is playing on the radio <br />And all the colors are on down the road, <br />The weight of consciousness pushes down on me. <br />And all the love in the air cant cure my despair. <br />Another mile to seek <br />But the road wont cross me, <br />And my life stumbles on <br />Down this bumpy road. <br />A woman in the jewelry store <br />Is grabbing up a diamond ring, <br />And the cars turn away from me. <br />And all I see are wondering souls. <br />Twenty minutes till the clock turns back <br />And the married man is playing the single act, <br />And the night is playing cold, <br />Along the stairway you seek your gold. <br />Another mile to seek <br />And happiness is so weak, <br />The world crumbles at my feet. <br />In its own pity and self defeat.<br /><br />Blaine McCanless<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/badnews-with-no-way-out/
