UNITED FRIENDS CHALLENGE NUMBER
ONE HUNDRED FORTY-FOUR....
I AM EVERYWHERE
Spaceeagles' Challenge
Write a poem or story using the phrase "the voluminous clouds."
I AM EVERYWHERE
I am everywhere
I am in the east
I am in the west
I am in the south
Look over there to the north
I am everywhere
I can bring laughter until tears flow
See the voluminous clouds
of dust
From the panicked feet of people
Whom I have their every trust
I come into your home on wire
Or float through the air wave upon wave
Even printed on paper twice daily
Seeking ears and eyes to assail gaily
Of this I never tire
I cover the globe
With those seeking
To capture photos
Of those who are famous
When they are disrobed
From politics to poisoned food
I am always there
To ruin a good mood
I am happiest when people
Sit and brood.
They are aware I am this way
Why they even pay
To see my reports of things black
To listen to the words of things always dire and gray
I am the media
I am everywhere
If what I say is not true
No one seems to care
I give them all something
They can share!
The End
