There once was a young writer in France,
Who for the New Year wanted to dance.
To get out of his rut,
Outside he did strut,
But forgot he was wearing no pants.

Hope
All hope has left is /
the first day of the year. /
Santa walks away.

Dear 2023
Dear 2023,
What type of year will you be?
Wild and free
Or consternating me?
O’ 2023,
Could I have a word?
Is it absurd
For me not to have heard
What type of year you will be?
I don’t want to own you.
Not even bone you
But if I phone you,
Would you be the right date for me?

New Year’s Eve
Tomorrow somewhere /
a New Year has begun. Here /
the old treatments linger.

Whelmed (dad joke, number 4)
Happy to see you. /
First, right amount of whelmed. Then, /
I was over it.

Dad joke, number 2
A dad joke, you can /
always tell, but never can /
you tell it, “Can can.”
