Commemorating the praises for one man’s ears which often hear the news before those of his peers.
An ode to Roger Dodger
Is long overdue,
Not because he’s a codger,
‘Cause gents like him are few-
Ears glued to the scanner
All day and all night,
He’s no king in a manor,
But he is our news knight –
Explaining bloodied lawns,
Hovering helicopter noise,
And locked-down neighborhoods –
A recluse reporter sans yawns,
Police radar pimp with poise,
Forthright fact finder with the goods.
