From this memory too

I am purged

of my ills

of those damned mistakes

and filled

replete with resplendence

seeking glory I have found you

your face reflected in every curvature

falling and I?

I hold my gaze level

while you hang for one last

ensnaring but no, useless

moment

until this too passes

and I?

I hold my head straight 

as you fall

small and uniform

all that is you blending with all that is else

and disappear.

And I?

I hold firm

and leave you

to drain away at last. 

On the Turning of the Year

Isn't it interesting that we place so much emphasis on the first of January? As far as I know, there's no reason that this particular day, this floating point in time, should be rewarded with such jubilance. The year is just an artificial creation, and it's not like anything special happens either. If anything, I would be celebrating the start of the new fiscal year; at least then you could toast to a new blank slate! That being said, here are my

Resolutions to be Held for 365 Days:

1. Blog once a day, no matter how small or pointless the post ;)
2. One act of kindness a week (I'm being realistic here)
3. Learn how to power-nap!
4. Learn how to play video games (well)
5. Bake an exotic cupcake
6. Grow two inches taller (don't know how realistic this one is...)
