Wake Up Call
There is an alarm clock going off somewhere
Beep beep beep beep beep beep
But then it stops
And then it goes off again
Is it in one of the apartments below
Beep beep beep beep beep beep
Piercing urgent insistent
Is there a warning buzzer on some machine here
Did I misset the clock on the stove again
Is my son playing his Gameboy upstairs
When I have specifically said he may not
Enough electronics for today
I told him
But he has been known to hide under his covers
Thinking I wont discover him
I stand and prepare to confront him
All is quiet and then I hear it again
Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep
My attention is drawn to the window
It is a bird deep in the forest.

- Frank : "hyped-up, that is. Another spelling error.
- Frank : Joe is absolutely right. Thanks for correcting my spelling. I wish I could say the same for rhazckal. The point he misses is that Berlusconismo is everywhere in the world of Western democracy these days, blinding the public with spettacolo and huped-up fears of a mostly invented crisis in security. If that isn't worthy of an article, I plead guilty to unworthiness.
