I probably put too much time in this blackout/erasure poem, which never found a home in any online journal and now never will. Based on a March 17 artice from the Boston Herald, I had to make some kind of commentary on the gushing praise (tinged with entitled bitterness) for Tom Brady's departure for Florida.
