Stay Positive

15 line version

With all the gloom and doom
Nonstop 24/7 BREAKING NEWS
Bad, crazy, deceitful, dismal, evil,
Fake, fraudulent, wild news
Flooding our TV screens.

Like Frank Zappa’s famous
“Slime oozing out of your TV sets”
It is very hard to remain positive.
Hard to see the good news.

Senator Manchin reached a deal
To deal with climate change
Inflation and energy security.

He took the deal
He had denounced
A few weeks before.
