EXIT

I’ve wondered at times if people look for

certain things when they enter a room or

a house - a restaurant or a store. I don’t

know if I do - or if anyone does. Maybe 
some wonder about things like: Where is the bathroom? Is there an exit. Who’s here?

Who’s not here? Who’s who here? What's 
here? What's going on here? I repeat, I 
don’t know if anyone thinks about one of
these questions consistently or consciously. 
If I had to guess or give an answer for myself,

I think I’d say, “Where’s the exit?” Now

what does that say about me? What does

any answer, if we have one, say about us?
