Instructions for Existing in February.
Sing only in the shower or car - at night or turning down long roads in the afternoon sun - sing privately with all of your diaphragm, thinking of the steely dome of the Civic Arena, how they said that the arena used to open to the stars. You do not have practical shoes, but since you want to walk, walk, and accept wet soles, wet socks. Keep your hands in your pockets when you walk, even though the bottoms of the pockets have torn. When with children, be patient but firm. Let them touch your hair, your scarf, the shape of your face. Ask them about numbers, about time. Build at least one snowman, with a real carrot nose. Drink Ginger-Peach tea, Ginger-Lemon tea, Ginger tea. Drink mush less than one pot of coffee a day. Continue not to smoke while craving cigarettes, and enjoy your newfound revulsion towards the smoke of others. Talk frequently with your understanding of God, and try to be very quiet when you can, in order to hear the answers. Talk frequently to the animals that talk to you. Learn to bake an apple pie. Remember that there are many kinds of love; be fearlessly honest without comparing your actions to the perceived fearlessly honest actions of others. Believe in what holds you. Trust that you will be held.
