Red, After New Year's

By Nicholas Tan · January 2, 2007

for every resolution
I shall hang myself with love,
with self-invested concubines,
burning just for me.

That sounds really cool, but I'm not sure it makes any sense (or if it does, I certainly missed the meaning). Maybe I'm just thinking too hard.

I was thinking about the idea of a new year's resolution, and usually any that I make are discarded soon after. This poem is an attempt to personify this effect. Hope that makes it more understandable.

That helps a bit, yeah.
