HOW to get ready for #popisho.
A thread. Ahem.
A thread. Ahem.
Raise your head from your phone and look at the sky. Go cloud-hunting.
Cultivate tiny, colourful things as they push themselves out of the earth. Camellias, roses, hibiscus. Ordinary miracles.
Go for a walk. Find a bench. Close your eyes. Count the sounds. An urban purr. A wail. A child laughing. Imagine the sea, whispering behind it all.
Ask: who do I love?
Ask: who is the one that got away? Smile.
Ask: what is my alternative?
Go listen to Frank Ocean’s PINK AND WHITE. perfect to begin #thisoneskyday
Go listen some old time soca!
Rub your fingers across someone’s skin.
Laugh.
Find a moth. Look at it close.
Check in with your girlfriends.
Eat a stone fruit. Peach, plum, mango. Eat it messy. The juice must drip down your hand.
Reconnect with radio. Someone loud and life-affirming.
Take a deep breath. And another. And one more.
Pre-order #thisoneskyday in the UK April 15, nah (@FaberBooks) And #popisho in the USA April 20 (@fsgbooks)
