Talk Back

ring the radio and rave
make it sound like you
are suffering, the ABC
allows you tell it all – will
stall and play ‘Ring Of Fire’
as if Johnny Cash explains
the wherewithal of talkback
shows...

JC – I’m meaning Johnny
Cash of course, can claim
my ears, he’s made a case
which mitigates the fickle
fates of popularity, never
was a clone to any views
except his own quite
naturally

Steve, whose show this
is, appreciates anomalies;
he’s made a case which
states its own redundancy
the crap I’ve heard agrees
he needs to be returned
with speed to prime-time
hours
