Colorado Public Radio Membership Drive

every time CPR has a fund drive,
i subscribe, regardless of whether i subscribed
six months ago since i never know when
i last did and i hear those poor pitiful
commentators begging us to support them.
i want to even though i’m probably committed
for the next 15 years to my monthly payments
that have all stacked up, and maybe even
posthumously…
i’ll have to let my children know that
they have the responsibility of sending my
payments to CPR, and if i have committed
for longer than their lives, to have my
grandchildren send payments as well.
perhaps next time NPR is fundraising, i
should restrain myself and let someone
else pick up the phone.
