I love Christmas When (a Demented Poem About Christmas)


I love Christmas when.... (By Reggie Bates)



I love Christmas when....  

I love Christmas when 
Dad is stoned on booze 
picking fights with me and mom 
fights were sure to lose 
mom counters with a frying pan 
dad's head she's sure to bruise 
But I love Christmas when 
dad is stoned on booze 

I love Christmas when 
we're shopping at the mall 
people going bat-shit crazy 
shoppers wall-to-wall 
If only one hand grenade 
and I could have them all 
but I love Christmas when 
we're shopping at the mall


I love Christmas when 
the relatives all stop by 
all those people you just can't stand 
wishing they'd all die 
The only way to cope with it is 
to constantly stay high 
but I love Christmas when 
the relatives all stop by

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
