To know yourself better practice forgetting.

Infinite circles fit in a line.

When I see the phone I want to call my mother.

I take a class to learn about an actor’s tool, the neutral mask.

My favorite mirror though is Ahab

Caught on the deck in the eyes of Starbuck,

The moment that leads to forgetting the track,

Seeing his wife, considering turning, but then not.

I love the luscious mowing later on, but no more than

The moment between

The two men, fact on the verge of doubling back.

We practice moving in cataclysmic response.

Earthquake, tidal wave, volcano, tsunami.

In the dance studio, sheets drape over the mirror.

We will learn, this way, to see ourselves better.
