Oustanding Who We
There was
No New Year
as standing out
as we all were
outstanding
in imagery only
we thought the year was passing slowly
we all were standing out not so closely
six feet was the minimum
not more than four in a room
so I composed my poem
''TRAVERSE
From 2020 to 2021''
not many were as outstanding
to understand me
and
my outstanding poetry
all were self indulging
left me with no glee
they knew not me
who was I
in the darkness
out standing

I like all the different
ways you use "outstanding". I took this to mean a reflection on how rough it's been in 2020. perhaps a desire for a better 2021, too?
might I suggest that you use "standing out" somewhere in the body to give more play on it
did you mean the ALLCAPS where you used it?
