Why is it that
Turning a corner
For the 270th time
This year
Feels about as
Momentous
As any other day
Even when it involves
A fake college
Voting in a real leader
Or a vaccine
Developed with science
Being delivered to those
Who don’t believe in it
I listened to the radio
Playing a countdown
Of two thousand twenty songs
Most of which I’ve heard
At least that many times
While I unpacked boxes
I wanted to dance
