"Act so that there is no use in a centre." Reprint from 2008

—Gertrude Stein, Tender Buttons



This is a letter. A letter to you. What I want to say is that if I were able to act without use of a center, I might find positions that revolve. Or better, I would find something that hovers, like a Ouija board from my youth, which told me that I would find someone named Chris. For the record, I don't generally find myself believing in such things.
