exhale

it's nice to let
it go, to let the battery
die out. switch it all
off. no beeps, no buzzes,
no voice mails, e mails,
or knocks at the door
with a special delivery.
it's calming to put your
feet into the ocean, to
breath in the salt air,
to exhale the year,
before the next one begins.
it's nice to let it go.
