HOW TO WRITE A POEM: A LIST

1. Dip your paintbrush in your bottle of tears
2. Leave everything you've learned about rhyme schemes outside
3. Exhale on to your paper all your fears
4. then the scariest part-                                                   write
5. Accept the fact you are not Sylvia Plath
6. ( You do not really want to be)
7. Don't focus on the aftermath
8. Sell your secrets, for the sake of poetry
