You have a list of actions that have nothing to do with anything.
Earlier I made a few poems in my head out of a few of these lines. But I forgot them.
"What are you going to do today?"
"Oh, I was thinking about holding street lights with broken fingernails. But if it rains, I might swing by the orphanage and feed them some--curiously white--glue. I've been meaning to do that."
It's as easy as that. Imagine you doing things, like you say, and write about them, if that's what you like to do.
Thanks for the advice! I'm an austere visual person and usually stick to painting or drawing; it's hard for me to translate into words. In this poem each line came from images of a story I fabricated, but I guess it only makes sense in pictures of my mind hah. Trying to write it out as a story is a great idea I'll definitely try it out!
