Rule 2: Don’t Write Poetry about Poetry
A poem is a magic looking-glass
In which you see others, and not yourself
And search it for veiled possibilities
This mirror for the needs of –
not yourself
When you tap-tap to push pixels about
Or set in place a line of ink and hope
Into a meaning that you have perceived
It is a bedesman’s prayer for –
not yourself
A poem is a magic-measured song
That helps make sense of life for –
not yourself
