This will be the winter of my contentment I will shed regret and resentment I will finally get it I will not forget it I will shred this narrow point of view This prism of individuality Itβs a prison in reality The world is a superorganism in totality I see intersectionality and finally find sanity My mind is now a GoPro I can view my life in slow-mo This is not the Truman Show This is real, I can feel it As this film reel flies by I steal a glimpse with these two eyes Before I meet my demise I will run with these two thighs I will squat 5 plate, I will lose some weight I will choose my fate Lighter than a feather because I have come untethered I float high among the weather, never weathered Renewed by cleansing rains You may call them hurricanes But that is a matter of perspective Positivity is infective So I will spread a vibrant virus From the Pope to Miley Cyrus I say nope to the winter blues This is the winter that I choose To sway to and fro with the flow To gratefully frolic in the snow
