resolutions


new years

just another day

but i can’t help but be trapped by thoughts

that i should resolve

 

last night

surrounded by empty cans

i discussed the meaning of life

with other writers

 

they believed all will be

          something

not the nothing

i hold the end to be

 

after well wishes

i was on dimly lit streets

heading for bedroom sheets

when i entered an area without artificial light

draped in natural darkness of night

 

i had to look toward a distant light

to see anything

i stopped

stood in complete darkness

          created by the absence of all light

and closed my eyes

 

today i started drinking before noon

to forget that there is nothing to resolve
