fun fact: this is both a villanelle and a cento.

the repeating lines Don’t send pictures of your penis & You know I know all of your secrets create the villanelle frame for the poem

all lines in this poem were harvested from posts on Craigslist as a class assignment, defining the poem a cento, where the lines of the poem are from other authors.

because Craiglist is an anonymous site, I can only accredit the poem from anonymous contributors.
