freeing up room in the mind for more helpful things

getting ready for new year-end undertakings

giving unto a new run towards the network

undoing the last few years of deep nothingness

hoping tomorrow will begin a sense of drive

bringing back to mind what happened this time last year

softening the songs and getting set for "the books"

sleeping already for some thicker days ahead

arising early to start a new path with life

having a short and sweet first set of new learnings

teeming with a newfound will to find new earnings

writing more lines of reckoning with the snake tongue

listening for some rare liveliness at daybreak

hurrying to get this work done for the weekend

ending this long week with a yeartidely dark brew

hacking away for a way out of this hot mess

waking early for a first true set of learning

righting the ship after some falls takes time and grit

boiling the givens down to a meaningful line

shining afar a glimmer of some long lost hope

seeing that hope might only be knacks of the light
