Tins of cheap
cookies and stale candy canes
Bing and
David Bowie sing 'White Christmas'
while outside
it rains and it rains.
Guilded candles
so festive soot rises on high.
Children
senses dulled by commercials
they just
stare and they sigh.
No blessed
mother, no baby Jesus
just self-centered
requests.
Why bother
with the Christchild
when Santa's
the best.
Those baubles
tomorrow may be forty percent off,
no payments
til June if you can pay for them all .
So, let's
raise our glasses...
Salute !
Hold your
nose, swallow quickly and pass the zoloft.
