How to Be My Muse

by Trisha De Gracia

Sit in the centre.
Evert each atrium
aorta, ventricle.
Press wrinkled skins
to the newsprint for transfer.

Instigate cracks in the glass I have blown.
Let CO2 words fizzle out of the fissures,
dissolve into stratus, cirrus;
Drown in crisp air and damp moonlight.

Do nothing.


Except
know my alchemy turns you to symbols
our dramas to whimsical rhythm
and prose


Or, conversely,
know nothing.

I like this a lot. And I know nothing.
