Or...

if you draw a circle..
whether you do it manually
or with a compass...

it has a beginning
and an end to the 
drawing of a circle...
that is the center.

Might be hard to
detect now in the
universe...with all
that mess up there..

hard to see...
hard to spot
hard to detect
hard to idenify
hard to recognize
hard to ..observe

but it's there.
