the first day of the New Year
has got off to a bad start
the resolution I made was
jettisoned off my cart
when another New Year swings
around again
I'll put that one on
my must do freight train
over the past decade
I've had several broken intentions
which have resulted in
not sticking to conventions
those who can oversight
an annual oath well
might just like sharing
their keeper's spell
here I sit eating what
I vowed I wouldn't eat
but gee I am enjoying
that sugary treacle treat
