Songwriting, ep 1: how to write a song without trying

Hey friends! Welcome to my new series, "Songwriting". I've been creating music since the early 80s. I still own the same guitar I bought when I was 16 years old, I never get rid of my gear. I'm currently working on a solo release and I thought I would share the process with you. Let's have some fun! Attached below are links to the gear I used to make this song.
