Advice to Poets
by James Broughton

Simplify. Clarify. Vivify.

               *

Surprise your eyes. Break your heart open.


               *

Look out! Here comes the Imperishable Light!
Accept no substitutes.


               *

A cucumber shouldn't try to be a tomato.


               *

Don't argue or mock. Unfurl like a rose.


               *

Dose all your ills with laughter.


               *

Collapse categories.
Go beyond! Go beyond!


               *


We are all participants in the marvelous.
