Last night, last year

Happy last night 
Plenty of popping, 
all through the distance
but no real fireworks. 

In substance, in sum, 
that was the year 
that was. Little glory, 
and nothing hurts. 

Good morning, now! 
Whoever you are and 
wherever you be, or
go, or may. Have 

a happy new year, 

and may nothing 
blow up in your hand 

today.
