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.

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?

I was over it.

O’ (un)holy Krampus Night.
There is a being named Krampus
Who this night comes for some of us.
Some of us will go
To where, we don’t know
But that will leave more gifts for the rest of us.

Good eats
I’m nuts about here. /
Sunflower seeds are healthy, /
Help me scatter birds.

The seat
I bought the book /
with the cow on the couch /
and I wonder /
is this a Freudian slip, /
a Jungian shadow, or /
my mother’s sofa.
