Got this from a writer friend who prefers to remain anonymous. No, I’m not being coy, I didn’t write it. Wish I had! Have a good New Year’s Eve, see you on the other side.
Undeck the halls!
Pack up those balls,
And haul the tree away.
Take down the lights
From rooftop heights.
Unhitch that Santa sleigh.
No candle glow.
No mistletoe.
The yule log’s burned to ash.
Reread your cards,
Note fond regards,
Then throw them in the trash.
The old year ends
With gobsmacked friends
Still moaning in the aisles.
A know-naught tweeting petulant
Will soon become our President
And somewhere James Buchanan* sits and smiles.
*Currently ranked as our worst President ever
