The Christian Broadcasting Network in the lunch room
television on the wall
Pat Robertson
wrinkled with age the same old pander
a gift for religious gab
in Texas at Verizon Southlake  
someone tuned the TV to CBN
preaching scat in the empty room
the last to leave
had left it on
colleagues Ahmed Hasib Nuriddin and Shao
coming for coffee or tea
might notice old Pat muttering.
