"The New Year"
a new year spreads its wings
with warm air and overcast skies.
the kind of skies that bring rain
or snow dependent on temperature.
a day to embrace; the first of 2021;
where we celebrate with
hair of the dog
and leftover cheese platters.
a day where we browse social media
and contemplate our existence.
people around the world are shuffling,
or napping on their couch.
forgetting the whirlwinds of 2020
as if quantitative measurement of time
will make a change for them.
as if these new wings
will teach themselves to fly.
