21 Ways to Drift and Float

3. Rest on the surface of a lake. Stay on top of that lake. Don’t go under.
4. Be a scoop of ice cream perched within a soft drink.
5. Become a drifter.
6. Go fishing. Wade out holding the line. When a fish bites, tell someone.
7. Levitate.
8. Be the Portuguese man-of-war. Get good at using that bladder.
9. Live in a carburetor or the back of a toilet tank.
10. Don’t walk. Don’t run. Don’t Crawl. Glide.
11. Become a sailor or a bird’s wing.
12. Be the smell of stale fat wafted out from a cafe.
13. Only skim through newspapers and magazines.
14. Be a tourist, never be a pilgrim.

19. Be made out of cork.
20. Live in trees.
21. Be turpentine. Have someone leave the lid off.
