Tom Brokaw

Tom Brokaw is a beautiful person.
By beautiful I mean communicating disease
as in the pythagorean theorom swiped at by mud-covered tribes
The incident of my subtraction Tom thought. White
as Rauschenberg’s supposed rudeness

Forget that night & your wet socks. Low-flying engines. She’ll never
happen again.

Did he jump, Tom, did he! And it’s fall in the Southern
hemisphere
Of towels, gross raging, the shits again

Febrile men - wept, whacked out: I’ve got to go big
distances...

Well-hung & snow-white trash.
The furniture was heavy failing also.
Is this physics or ambivalence? No matter. Tom remains
sequestered,
loves them amidst news
of child abuse & lake effect snow. His news, a
series
of vibrations their sadness
& visions bring into relief.
Beyond toejams, landfills, caviar. The despondent correspondent
pushing all those riotous grey sheep
into a quiet form of media.
