RACHEL LAVERDIERE

Light a jasmine-scented candle before you begin with shelves to house books to inform thoughts. Then paint the walls aquamarine and free a kaleidoscope of butterflies that’ll flutter past shelves encrusted with seashells. Pepper the room with an explosion of feathers. Toss in a cat for good measure. 

Let the cat crouch on all fours, and she’ll become your personal temptress. Let her purvey secrets & provide stolen thrills while she lounges on embroidered pillows. Keep a caged monkey to promote inspiration and to give voice to all beaus & husbands & sons trapped by earthly desires. Give him an apple to remember the fall. 

Forgo electric lights and melt jasmine-scented candles by the dozens. This will cleanse impure fancies and invite a return to pure thought. Adhere mirrors to each surface to ensure your pursuance of Truth.

Caress the seashells & comfort your monkey. Seek out the cat & drift into the possibilities offered by her embroidered pillows.
