Face a blank wall. Pretend the wall is a mirror. Say good morning to the toilet. Thank it for taking all your shit. Pretend you are very old. Move at half speed. Hug yourself and say I love you. Repeat until it’s true. Walk like you’re happy. Change directions. Be a pussy. Purr. Lick your beautiful fur. Regard the world upside down. Make eye contact with your meds before you swallow them. Ask them, “Are you for real?” Do everything backward. Smile at someone you don’t like. If they smile back, give yourself a point. Lie on your back on the floor and listen. Feel free to sing along.
