Htym A

as my dad's preaching a
photo-shoot of kindness is
the question of center
it must
be a language.

inside me is a foot for lard
multiples of us
with center

of which i know no center
"I'm a loser,"
a life that happens

in me.    Supervised

at the house of rules
The foot a pattern, the way
A MYTH.
