Short Resolution

fourteen days into 23
resolutions failed in a day
no goodbye to 2020
even as the fireworks exploded

A shredded calendar
in my mind
swirling down the abyss
and the song starts again

painted shadows
wrapped me
in its subdued joy
joyous for life

in the shadows
picking shredded papers
on the ground
putting them together

to look for the word
that affirmed my existence.
