count the number of Tuesday’s remaining
this year, if lucky a new year is coming
calibrate your most latent expectations
distinguish stimulation from propaganda
if you need drama, watch the leaves turn
feel the unconscious dare of hope
swallow the sacredness of ordinary days
examine the materiality of fidelity; listen
elucidate future present tense
seek pleasure to root out despair
replenish your somatic prayers
consider how your routine is a rhythm
write down its verse, chorus, verse
review when you forget you are the bridge
