See double you

write a poem as if 
you left your laundry in the same room
as gertrude stein overnight
you don’t want to be stein 
you just want to smell like her 

speak like o’hara 
just shat a little in your throat
master the mouthfeel
but please wring it out first
It’s not poetry without the p

find a painting
and lick the oil off the signature
simmer in it while you spit it up
write about legacy in your lungs
and silica in your phlegm

go stab some baby animals
find where mary oliver left that [fucked up] cat
leave it guilty
like the red part of a slap
that goes “look at what you’ve done”

share your weed with Hejinian
45 hits of 45 grams in 45 minutes
make your words unforgettable
the worst thing writing does
is making the world human
