Maps for the Modern World

A poetic call for mindfulness, creativity, and analog real-world connection in an increasingly disconnected world from singer-songwriter Valerie June.

Maps for the Modern World is a collection of poems and original illustrations about cultivating community, awareness, and harmony with our surroundings as we move fearlessly toward our dreams.

I love you

Like a fall leaf dancing

And twirling in the wind

Softly landing,

Returning to the warm earth

Rest

Make new

Begin

Again
