The Storm of Christmas (The Dark Secret of Santa)
December 24th. Across the world gifts are given to the good
From the privileged rich to those living dirt poor in neighborhoods,
“Upon all the major continents and places forbidden, seen and unseen
Bringing joy to loved ones, creating smiles and making children’s eyes gleam,
“On line shopping is bleeding the Christmas magic by small amounts
That has the Empire of Christmas worried about being completely drained out,
“But systems are in place to protect goodness, and Christmas at all cost
Before a unique and ancient tradition is...

Christmas
There's a time of year we all await.
When everything is as white as a ceramic plate.
When there are snowflakes on the ground.
And under the tree, a present is found.
When everybody sings carols.
And everyone is nice.
When everyone says his name.
Once,twice,thrice.
When they sing,cheerful mice.
And everyone gets a chance.
Under the mistletoe,a happy new romance.
When December arrives.
And everyone thrives.
This fairytale,once upon a December.
In December,not November.
When everything is in...
When everything is as white as a ceramic plate.
When there are snowflakes on the ground.
And under the tree, a present is found.
When everybody sings carols.
And everyone is nice.
When everyone says his name.
Once,twice,thrice.
When they sing,cheerful mice.
And everyone gets a chance.
Under the mistletoe,a happy new romance.
When December arrives.
And everyone thrives.
This fairytale,once upon a December.
In December,not November.
When everything is in...

Hard Shadow Noon...
and meridian sun...
are you starting spring too soon
before the winter's begun?
But of course the frost at night
treats the garden like a blight
so I expect a solstice near
the end of this cold hearted year
presaging a future scourge
where more hate and war emerge
because Caucasians had to vote
for a scumbag to get our goat
with their fits of rage caprice...
which mock these nights
of manger peace.

Babuska's sarmale
In a snowy Romanian village, during Christmas cheer,
my Babuska spun tales, both delightful and queer.
The tradition was sarmale, a savory delight,
Cabbage wrapped treasures, cooked all through the night.
Meat and rice nestled in leaves so green,
simmered in tomato, a feast so serene.
But woven in laughter and holiday charms
were Babuska’s stories with their quirky alarms:
"Behave well, dear children, lest you wish to be seen
in the pot with the sarmale, simmering and lean."
The children would giggle, eyes...

Merry Christmas, Mom - Part XII
You were my mother until I was forty-one.
I was fortunate and lucky to be your son.
December has arrived and Christmas is near.
Life would be better if you were still here.
You were the best woman that I've ever known.
But since you died, I've spent Christmases alone.
If you and I could share another Christmas, it would be great.
But you died over eleven years ago and it was a terrible fate.
I still miss you to this day and that is certainly true.
Have a Merry Christmas, Mom, everybody loves you.
I was fortunate and lucky to be your son.
December has arrived and Christmas is near.

depository of sins
no cake cutting
in church promise of reaping
if we sow recovery seed

Three Sizes too Small
All MAGA votes are votes for a troll
and the hate and fear in their control
plus all the guns they love
beneath the stars above...
the Grinch that stole their Christmas soul.

Trans Reindeers With The Hump
Tis now the eve of december
A time to remember
NOT to watch tv
Avoid christmas ads, and emails
If anyone brings christmas into any conversation
Grunt audibly, then say "bah humbug!"
Then wander off, grumbling incoherently
Ironic that the first santa
Came to us from 11th century Turkey
Sounds like he was hatched!
Turkey, and santa, are you kidding me?
When santa lived in Turkey, he had no reindeer
And managed without for over 600 hundred years
Perhaps he used camels instead
Imagine six camels soaring into the night...
