THE SKEPTICS KADDISH ---W3 # 230

long time gone
the Christmas beetle
another loss to
environmental degradation

christmas is not the same
without them
flying around on a hot summers night
part of the christmas decorations
 
you believing
that the angels
decorated them in tinsel green and gold
for the christmas season
you believing 

that santa ate that fruit cake
left for him by the fireplace
you believing

that clumsy angels were dropping
and moving furniture
during thunderstorms

another world

magical
a creative childhood
in colour
lucky you
