Re:
The poem is about the shattering of real community that comes from the media and the fake community it tries to replace it with. The ending should not have been a surprise. The television and radio community fails to put any real community back together again.

This is dumb because the wheels don't spin. It looks like you're doing one thing, and then the surprise ending. Where's the weave, and the inter-connection of language? A surprise ending--where was the straight man? I feel let down by the surprise because I wasn't brought into the process. I know a lot about this because I'm a failure myself, so there!
