A poem a day in April from Rutgers English PhD students and friends.

Collaborations 1 and 2

Collaboration 1

I start to see cross-references
Cross-contamination
Contagion

It happens when you play with magic, play on
Our diffusion
We're legion

I always thought of collaboration as 
Playing nice
Until I started writing this poem,
Where it's more like
Invasion


Collaboration 2

We dream of automatic writing, together
We brainstorm over the phone, 
I email you your thoughts, and you email me mine,
We comment on poems, posts, in track changes.
This is what I meant to write of, not invasion, but 
Diffuse creation
