New Baby Card poem

I wrote the following after shopping for a New Baby Celebration card at a nearby Hallmark store. I saw something strange in the recycled paper when I held it up to the light:

New Baby Card

This New Baby card
Says on the back

It's printed
On recycled paper.

If I hold it up to the light
Just right,

I can make out
the Obituaries

From the L.A. Times,
January something, 1969.
