Plasma Nights
By Tom Leonard
seductive bright light
of the evening narrative
ease of habit
the need to relax
heck
we all need a break
so it goes
day into night
something to talk about
social cohesion
*
which is entertainment
which is value
which is passing time
which is bonding
movement on the retina
movement in the brain
reinforcement
which is
processed information
spectator dialogue
plasma brother
*
privileged
by bombs
we occupy
the dominant narrative
for subjects
far away
who may envy us
if seen
on their screen
