Happy New Year, it's 2025
I guess that means we're still alive
Why do we celebrate an arbitrary date?
And stay up so very, very late?
Get rip roaring drunk, with no thought
For tomorrow's hangover, that you've bought
Watch bad TV, a second rate band
Listen to some TV hosts you cannot stand?
Alas, maybe I'm just a confused guy
With absolutely no idea why
All this stuff exists, hey
At least we fixed Y2K!

Desert Bus 2024, Day 4. Dan Olson is a thoughtful person. Welcome to the unhinged madness that is Desert Bus for Hope; please come again!
I felt like the words speak for themselves and needed very little. I edited and formatted them into a contemporary poem, and added a little accent. That's all.
India ink and watercolour on textured paper. Italic script.
