Poem #10

Write a poem titled "How____"

*

"How You Doin'?"

Say that again
and I will skin
that cat within you
calling out to me
in whistles
and clicks
like some kind
of dog
who will tear out
that cat gut
of yours
and re-string
my violin
for better sound
butter-smooth
not the jagged
edge of your whistle

Go on.
Say it again.
