2010.

look decade - it's over.
you're finished
we're through
i gave you 10 years
now i'm dumping you.

it was fun while it lasted
but the spark
it has gone
so, see you later zeros
it's time to move on.

holiday fear

twas the week before christmas
and all through my head
no sugarplums danced, just neurosis & dread.

the presents are half-bought
the work isn't finished
and holiday cheer?

let's say it's "diminished".
