Christmas=Consumerism
By Lime
Greasy little faces Smushed against the smeared glass, "I want THAT", "Gimme THOSE" Merry Christmas to all Screaming babies, grimy kids Weary, moneyless mothers, Absentee, happy fathers A lovely day at the mall Toys and gadgets for sale, All "priced low", So it'll only set you back... Just a FEW hundred. Loooong lines that go back 10 moms Wincing and snarling cashiers Who barely manage to growl out "Thank you. Have a nice day" A religious holiday? I think not As the kids reek Of consumerism! Written December 16th, 2001 © on Dec 16 2001 10:57 AM PST 0 • 9
