From Picture to Page: Don't Look

For the first time ever, I wrote today's poem on a Saturday to give myself more time to prepare for the week ahead. Don't know if it's going to help the final product, but I was tired of typos from last minute posting. No doubt influenced from a whole weekend of scanning and cataloguing over twenty years of papers.

Don't Look

Before
any ascent,
 
make sure
name down
 
in nearest
book of life,
 
any edition
you can find.
 
Sources matter
more than ever,
 
each new 
flight up
 
a call 
for papers.
 
Get affairs
in order 
 
for biography
or landfill.
