Drawing even if you’re not very good at it

When in doubt, step outside.
Let the sky stretch your mind,
let the wind shuffle your thoughts.

Change the scenery as often as you can.
Walk until the streets start to rhyme,
until the billboards blur into poetry.
When moving makes you tired, stay.
Stay until boredom bends into wonder,
until stillness cracks open something new.

A deli sandwich is a sacred ritual.
Paper crinkling, mustard biting,
the perfect ratio of bread to becoming.

And a new pair of $1 thrift store sunglasses?
That’s not just eyewear—
it’s a whole new version of you,
ready to outrun any crisis,
at least until sunset.
