The stockings are hung
with not too much care
while still we celebrate
the birth of Christ
my beloved children
shall have an early Christmas
not many presents and no tree
but as it has been written
it is the thought that counts
but that is not really true is it
I loved lots of presents
when I was a child growing up
so now the world is finally equal
the rich cannot buy salvation
the poor now have equality when
there is no one left to inherit a world
that is not worth a dollar or a dime
Death is coming for us all
I get the chills Just Thinking..
of killing my own children
for I would never let them suffer
I could not live a moment longer
with the agony, the dispair
of what I had done to my babies
no Times Square Ball falling
no Dick Clark to wish everyone
a Happy New Year
but at least we are saved
from the sight and sound
of Ryan Seacrest
we should all thank our God
for the smallest of favors

the world will continue along its preordained chaotic clueless
unfathomable way, even if great poets
like u come around and scream
prophetic irony in our ears
cuz
ryan seacreast? he is hot.
in certain quarters we would never knock for admittance
at. also there is the terrible story of this bieber, this
justin, this young man.
i dunno what to make of it, or him, or anything.
thank goodness for prophets like u i can listen to
before the BLACK DOG comes and eats me.
the weather channel is nice. there was this slinky gal in
a much too short skirt talkin tornados & humidity.
that is enough, for now.
Why is everyone writing about the end?

Joanne, I'm glad I can bring some emotion, I think poetry should make you glad or sad or horny!:-)
nilesite, thank you and welcome to my house. Put your feet up~
Fusun, you got me. I'm just following JD.

You sir are a very twisted man... don't know why but I like that.
Love the Ryan Seacrest part.
Thanks T. I fail to see what anyone sees in him. But, if everyone dislikes him, why is he rich and famous. Like Snookie I guess.
phyllis, no, only the last person I would want to see before I die~
V, I think sometimes I am writing more cynical things lately. I know not why~
Kosher, I flipped a coin~
Where are your gods now?!
