Making a Pie (Instructions for Pie and Life)
1. The act of reading poetry is a fine thing to incorporate. Begin, say, with Cornelius Eady’s “Gratitude” and take it from there.
2. Clean surfaces at the start are good for everyone and can only enhance goodness.
3. However, making a mess while going along is expected and encouraged. Virtually everything can be restored to order.
4. Working out the kinks: a good thing.
5. Bouncing around, or at least dancing, are thoughtful additions to process.
6. Strive for perfection, but know that this is a life’s work and, if you’re lucky, your vision will just barely exceed your grasp.
7. Don’t burn.
8. A la mode is never a bad idea.
9. Savor.
