This Year, Make a Resolution about Something Bigger than Yourself

Hmm, she murmured. I had planned
To resolve I would become
Morally superior

To everyone this year, but
I suppose I could resolve
To make the world morally

My equals, even-steven.
No, wait, better—I resolve
To improve humanity

This year until everyone
In the world is morally
Superior to me. Yes!

That way, the world, at long last,
Will get to be good, while I
Alone will get to be bad.
