OwnHouse (for Gil)

Any person’s priority 
must be themselves 
it’s not selfish 
it is necessary 
if one can’t 
find some way 
to make themselves 
happy then there
is no way 
that anyone else 
will ever either 
despite what people 
think or believe 
we are complements
but not niceties
we don’t fold 
into one another 
but rather reflect 
if one’s weak
then the other 
is even weaker 
straighten your house 
before you invite 
anyone to join
