It was Christ's day,
But we ruined it,

Shur,
Family gatherings,
Those are okay,

But family's can get together anytime,
No need for an occasion,
Its been too over rated,

Way to much retail crap,
People just try'n to get a sale,
Why bother,

Santa,
He's fake,
Just a comercialize fat guy in a suit,

Ho Ho Ho go home,
I tell all children,
That he's Hitler in disguise,

So what,
I'm evil,
Why bother,

This was a wonderful day,
The birth of Christ,
To many advertisments,

The need to buy buy buy,
Who wants to go broke,
Why bother,

Christmas day,
Who cares,
Why bother! [comments] => 4 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 13 [informant] => TwEeK [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Santa does exist as long as you believe in him and if you tell my grandchildren any different I will hunt you down and kick you in the shins and chin. Ho Ho Ho

This is a dark look at Christmas, but I know where you're coming from. I think the retailers are shoving x-mas down our throats more and earlier every year. Heck, by Halloween there's so much x-mas stuff out that it makes me sick. Christmas has turned into a commercial holiday, and it shouldn't be. The theme is buy, buy, buy and not the spirit of the whole season. It has gotten so comercialized that by the time Dec. 25th comes around I, personally, am sick of it. Sorry, but that's how I feel. It needs to go back to a simpler theme. Help those who need it, not buy the most expensive, or the most. Give from the heart, not the wallet. I don't think it's over-rated, just shoved down our throats for waaay too long before x-mas. I hear what you're saying.Sorry, you voiced a beef of mine and I ran with it. Thanks for having the guts to say it!!
