have you seen
these people that must crane to identify
these people that place heads at waists
these people
boring ocular drones at your books cover

they are interesting people, no doubt.
we could call them 'readers', surely,
if our thing is putting caps on heads
if our thing is lining books on shelves
if we wanna get strung out
without

i dont want to finish.

these people
so northsoutheastwest eager
who are they
these people
that will look at you
if you hide your cover
why:  why wont you turn
just a little, 
towards me

"Seeing that before long I must confront humanity with the most difficult demand ever made of it, it seems indispensable to me to say who I am. Really, one should know it, for I have not left myself "without testimony." But the disproportion between the greatness of my task and the smallness of my contemporaries has found expression in the fact that one has neither heard nor even seen me. I live on my own credit; is it perhaps a mere prejudice that I live? ... I need only to speak with one of the "educated" who come to the Upper Engadine for the summer, and I am convinced that I do not live ... Under these circumstances I have a duty against which my habits, even more the pride of my instincts, revolt at bottom, namely, to say: Hear me! For I am such and such a person. Above all, do not mistake me for someone else!" - Nietzsche, Ecce Homo
