on your request, i compile a list
of my top five resolutions for this year (one!)
i declined 'cause i decided that i (two!) do not believe in the new year anymore (three!)
and i must confess that at times like these hopefulness is tantamount to hopelessness (four!)
and i accept that it's time for a change but not in places like this with people like these (five! five! five! five! five!)
