Dateline Distraction
Boob-Tube Wannabe Illusions
Dateline, always on the tv
I’d make a stellar private eye
So many criminal wannabes
To arrest and charge for life
Rarely do they have a plan or plausible alibi
And you know, it doesn’t take a scientist
Comfy armchair, private eyes
Tom Cruise, missions not impossible
Easy for someone, as skilled as me
Distracting you from my real life, imagining me on your tv

Oh, brilliant!! ❣️
This was just awesome 😎
Oooo, this was so clever and creative!
It does seem simple when it's all laid out for us on tv as we watch it. Sorry, I'm all out of semi-humorous quips tonight. But I liked the acrostic poem.
Terrific!!! Loved it, Kelli!!!
You put the wow in wow factor. 👏🏼
