New Years Poem...
As a new year is upon us, we gleam with such excite;
Many parties and celebrations will be going on,
I think the mailman lost my invites.
Looks like I'll celebrating alone this year;
and toasting to the occasion,
One drink for me, one for humanity,
For drinking I need no persuasion.
I'll count back from ten and watch the ball drop;
toast and give a shout,
What the hell, I'll have another;
And drink til the brandy runs out.
Celebrating a new year, ringing with bliss,
being alone doesn't have to spoil it;
I just hope tomorrow doesn't find me,
crouched over hugging the toilet.
