In Holiday Style

poetry in perpetual motion…can’t stop for Christmas

—quote by me

in holiday style

poems drop like ball
auld lang syne in ecstasy
must i be on amazon?

the crack and pop of fireworks
litany of words
sugar plum fairy retort

the cards i toss on pine tree
i’ll not pen my signature 
skates busy prosing*

Yep, so much is done for mere, superficial tradition, without deeper spiritual values being expressed -- dissuading people from things of greater importance~ like (writing poetry) moral integrity and honor. The earth-path as opposed to one of righteous elevation. Very interesting write. Enjoyed.
