Bread Pudding Thieves

Almonds encased in hard red candy Brandy from snow white walnuts Collateral damage to the left front bumper of the sled Dietary restrictions on anything considered a spice Everything more often wins the day Francesca left her pie though (no one will eat that) Gluwein, go get it, we need it now Hysterical colors spin all around me Illicit behavior may well be tolerated though only after 10pm Jellybeans are being shoved into orifices now Knives are being put away for the safety of everyone here (especially Dwayde) Lathering up all the kid's faces now to resemble tiny maniac Santas My mother is making tea No one will drink Octopussy is playing in the background Phantasmagoria bread pudding Quickly tell me who ate all the bread pudding Round them up and shoot them Seriously The only thing I ever eat is the bread pudding and everyone knows it Unusual cravings now Vertical with help from the wall Waiting for someone named Misty to return from her car with her white elephant Xenon purple body Yuletide clopping going on inside my head Zesty reds streak across the insides of my eyelids
