I want to fathom this year new,
not dither here nor piddle there,
but see the depths of every you,
at home, at work and elsewhere.
I need to learn from what I knew
(a Shakespeare’s span, amazingly)
to honor them from whom I grew
and strive to know more humbly.
I should become a grazing gnu,
a transvaal in my neighborhood,
protect the young of every you,
regard this world again as good.
