and "Broke Baroque and " is a nonlinear verse narrative in the voice of homeless everyman named Broke, expounding on his existence and life experiences through conversational poems, tall tales, anecdotes, episodes, rants and jokes, much like that of Langston Hughes' Simple. Broke is also in the tradition of Charlie Chaplin's Tramp, as well as Nicanor Parra's Christ of Elqui, Zbigniew Herbert's Mr. Cogito and Richard Pryor's Mudbone, where these everyman personas critique modern society through satire, humor, irony and pathos. and " Tony Medina
