DREAMING OF CHRISTMAS characters on chairs, ring-a-round-the-rosies.* in-tro-du-cing… mr. claus, mr. frosty, o. deer, and self e. elf silently a counselor ticks notes with a pad and pen, occasionally, taking a one minute christmas snooze. dully, he asks, “so what are you boys in for?” midlife crisis santa goes first, “the kids used to believe, send me letters. now they send emails.” then he yells, “old man claus doesn’t understand computers! woe is me! i’ve been replaced by amazon,” he drolls on. mr. frosty, on the other hand, thinks himself a cool dude, but worries all the time. he dreams he’s drowning on a summer’s day. o. deer, chimes in with a harness shake, “nobody likes me.” he squeaks timidly, as he takes pictures with his new red nose. i’m trapped in a dead end job, rasps the elf. claus squints his eyes and self shuts up. “well, back to work boys," says santa! because you better believe me when i say, i won’t foot another bill!” “aww santa, you do this every year.” the counselor wakes up to a room without decoration or a tree. he rubs his eyes, “funny, i had that same dream last year!” 12/18/2016 *children’s song
