Dot the i’s
on your mortgage application
with love hearts or lightening bolts.
Wear underwear
with cartoon characters on
under suit trousers at a funeral.
Eat eight eggs. Fart on the bus.
Get a face tattoo
on the day of a job interview.
Walk in puddles with no wellies.
Write a message for the postman
on the back of every envelope you send.
Take advice.
Don’t take advice.
Always moisturise.

‘Liberosis is the desire to care less about things. It’s the feeling you get when you wish you could be a child again, without cares and concerns.’
