He said the undiplomatic cost
to all of us freedom celebrators,
to firstborn sons and daughters,
to last born future children,
would be far less
than its liberating value.
Value for and against whom?
Value for and against what healthy purpose?
Value for and against which wealthy constituents?
He couldn't say,
or wouldn't,
or shouldn't
Because he couldn't listen
and wouldn't savor
democratic peace.
Christmas day now over,
The turkeys now all dead.
While the bloated celebrators
Sleep their gorging off in bed.
No matter what it cost them.
(Though it cost the turkeys more),
They’d enjoyed the Christmas spirit
They’d invited through their door.
With plastic in their wallets
To finance their spending spree,
They ensured that all they’d purchased
Was on show for all to see.
They let family, friends and colleagues
Know what Christmas really means,
That by spending, spending, spending
You can purchase all your dreams.
Alas for all tomorrows
They may have to scrimp and save,
While the lucky Christmas turkeys
All lie peaceful in their graves!

An Inconvenient Truth About Christmas
By Elton Camp
It’s a season of excess, lies, drinking and greed
Many celebrators spend far more than they need
That Christmas honors Jesus simply is not true
It is falsehoods about Santa that people spew
Besides, Jesus Christ is now a heavenly king
At best, an image of a tiny babe it does bring
Christmas is a holiday that’s pagan to its core
Growing numbers refuse to do it anymore
Gifts should be given freely when you want to
Not when greedy custom demands that you do
Drunken Christmas parties can bring much grief
Observing it no more will bring one great relief
A major problem that creates anxiety and fear
Folks run up debt that they must pay on all year
So your pocket won’t be empty come Xmas eve
Give this commercial holiday a big, strong heave
