How to Prepare

For 24 Hours as a Writer Poet

In 3 Easy Steps

 

Step 1 Rise

Shake off the rot sleep,

tuck your nightmares dreams to bed,

dust away the cobwebs,

fill the cat bowls,

greet the dread sun, slowly rising,

and accept that today,

anxiety is part of the fun

 

Step 2 Ready

Brew the coffee

FOCUS PLEASE

set alarms to the :40,

jog the brain, lagging still,

Wait what’s the time

pull up your inpso boards,

Am I missing…

send off the good lucks,

and don’t forget

the pens, pencils, papers

in their multicolored sanctity

GET A MOVE ON

 

Step 3 Write

Buckle in, everyone.

It’s going to be a rough wild fucking ride.
