The Problem with Resolutions

the problem with resolutions
is that they stare you in the face
when they come due;

having seemed so trivial at
that moment when you lifted
your glass sparkling with champagne,

you face the clock, watching
the deadline approach with each
passing minute;

you release a long sigh,
returning reluctantly
to the task at hand.
