Dumbstruck
This new year
Coming soon Will be different For sure From the previous Less bold Dramatic Risky And Flamboyant I will stay close to home Avoid airplanes Trains And foreign currencies I will shop locally Stick to my knitting Tie up loose ends And ignore the sirens’ call This new year Will find me deaf And disinterested No matter the song The whispers The promises The lures Or offers I will be resolute Dumbstruck Struck dumb Disinterested But then again Only time will tell And resolutions Like these Are nothing more Or less Than wishful thinking |
