Jon Baker
Where does one begin? In the middle of course
At the centre: at the centre of nothing important, helpless and
selfish
Where are you? hiding, fighting or lost.
Are you crowded in or crowded out?
Are you claustrophobic or am I a claustrophile?
One night I dreamt of a crowd
Each one had my face
I was of course ignored
I ignored me
I was alone many times,
I didn’t recognise me
My face was my crowd
No one “I” said a word.
Beware the fury of Patience
