if I didn't
need to do
a thing?
Would I
fluctuate
between magnetic
and electrical
potential—
between
dinner and dancing
and a long-
distance call?
Show me a beholder
with no eye
to privilege,
and I'll show you
a massless particle
that doesn't rumple space at all.
Ask me:
what do "self"
and "it"
have in common?
And I'll answer:
how could a self
not be selfish
by default?
