The Idiot

 I have been a model--- 

twice.

First,

in University:

in a pseudo-advert for a lamp

I played chess;

a copy 

of

Shatranj ke Khilari;

I looked good

With my hand 

covering my face.

Second, 

in Research Institute:

a photo-op

for equal opportunity;

a brown guy

discussing research

with a white lady;

I looked good

With my back

To the camera.

The idiot as role model---

nice.
