Blow This


 

This year comes to an end
    with minds on dreams, old plans, and friends.

We watch as things change sometimes more than we'd like
    while other things go that we wish we could fight.

Though they never go as far as it feels
    those glimmers of somethings that grow into new deals
    with cross quiet pushes giving bigger things wheels.

Would you change what made room for the next big to-do?
    Dwell in a place that is no good for you?
    Eat the pound cake before the beef stew?
    Admit you can't tell the them from the you?

Here's to killing the frown
    playing the clown
    and not stepping back
    but staring them down
    and repeating your sound
    until it levels that sleepy old berg to the ground.

They still hear the song and picture you.

Happy new year!
