I Am Likely Already Surrounded
for Tim Yu

I am grateful for the treatment I have received. I am now civilized into a collective sense of warm future. Circling and sniffing each other in ten-second intervals. Through the burning soles of modal value. I also try and use sticks for that as well. I find it’s best to probe without touching. A steady state of loop detail. This may seem trivial, but notice, I am a respected member of the commonwealth. Pen clip in shirt pocket. Agog. Partly because of perception, partly so you would come and lie down. A small unit of meaning. I spread open hands and propagate.
