Making Copies
This world is a doppelganger
of someone’s simulation
and they are really trying
to make it a burnt ember
Put this fire out because
the smoke is killing me
like my mom’s cigarettes
on my favorite T-shirt
Do this like he did it
No, act like she does
Don’t think for yourself
Look in the trash can
over at the edge of
the parking lot and you
will find the remnants
of me making copies
