2008: Repudiate!

--What of a collection of 12 calendar pages can combine to such startling force and feeling?
--What of wrong places at the wrong times, the crash of cars and sound of screams in the night, for instance, negated?
--What of the cat gone and all the other dead, can a page be turned to bring them all back to the living?
--What of dim finances and collapsing economies, can they resurrect from the red and good fortune return?
--What of the anemic can be refortified, forcing energy into 2009 like powerful tea leaves?
--And what good can be unrepudiated, held over and hoarded for the new year?
--Is it enough to tag another calendar to the wall, heed that fresh start call and just begin, again?
