Every exit is an entrance
to somewhere else
except when you find yourself
in a square room
whose four walls each have
at their midpoint
a door which when exited
has the effect of
re-entering the room
via the door opposite of
the door being exited.

In rooms like this
you’re pretty much
fucked.

Ask I: “I Am a Lost Saw”

Q: I am going to a party at a private club. I have ears that stand out. I am a lost saw.

A: No little shine inside – and out?

Look for bright shade, a purple peach or an unusual mute.

Heat the flat. Ring the dress. Relax in a tug.

If your arms look elbow-length, skip and faint.

Get your freshly blown out light done professionally with false eyelashes.

Smile so your teeth count.

Out of the cocktail? Survey the door and stride in the hive.

Act.

Keep circulating with a ring.

The party is always easier when you’re tall!
