the aim is still true

i crumple up last years list
of my new years
resolutions.
few if any
never quite met.
be kinder.
make new friends.
lose weight.
floss.
stop bothering Betty
with my problems.
read more,
drink less.
go to church or at
least stop
talking bad about it.
my aim is still true as
i toss the ball of paper
and hit dead center into the can.
so where should i begin,
what is it about
me and my life that
i need to improve.
what possible new things
can i start doing to make
me a better man?
again, i'm stumped,
but my aim is still true
as i toss
another crumpled list
across the room.
