Pithy

I am now officially a renowned poet whose work has been read on the air by Bill O'Reilly, and heard by millions. It has been my goal to get one of my poems posted at the end of The O'Reilly Factor and be awarded a signed copy of Bold Fresh, Bill O'Reilly's new book. Well tonight I am famous. Bill O'Reilly posted and read my poem Pithy at the end of the show and announced I will be receiving a signed copy of Bold Fresh. I wrote Pithy on March 4, and it was posted at the end of the show on March 30. Folks, with no further ado, I proudly present the award winning, epic poem.

Pithy

The Factor keeps me in the know,
Helping my knowledge to grow,
When facts need exploring,
Bill’s never too boring,
His pithiness pleases me so.
