The New Year Post
It’s that time of the year again.
Pull a curtain over the past
prepare for the future
discard the old
adapt to the new.
Some do it like a duty,
like putting out the garbage
with no thoughts involved.
Some do it meticulously
like threading a needle
a thought, an idea at a time
all in the right sequence.
Some party away the night
Get up midday with a hangover so bad
the new year just seems like a blight
Some spend the wee hours ensconced
in the arms of loved ones
reliving the past,
envisioning the future.
Some are in the company of the TV
wondering whether the phone would ring
and someone would remember to wish them too.
Which of these were you?
