And no one knows if there are...

Butterflies as big as bats
with phosphorescent wings
My ears can’t speak
My mouth can’t see

Bugs are climbing up the walls
Spiders come out of my skin
My mattress melts into
tomato sauce
in which I start to...

Quickly spots a dapper mouse
Hawk dumpster dives for dinner

Children do ask us if Santa Claus exists
Most of us do reply, “yes, Certainly,dear”

How dreary our world would be if no Santa.
Only...
