(obsession
doggerel)
Holiday: noelmania [I made this up, I think]
He had a
strong fixation that
Commenced
in late November. He
Became a
Christmas autocrat—
Expressed
in Christmas lunacy.
His lights
went up; the music played;
He dressed
like dear old Santa Claus;
He bought
a reindeer (named it Wade)
But soon
was ostracized because
He was a little past the pale,
The fence
that most of us observe.
And soon
he found himself in jail—
A sentence
now he had to serve.
They let
him out on Christmas Eve.
He raced
to check upon his elves.
And found
he still had time to leave:
They’d
done the needed work themselves.
He loaded
up his fabled sleigh,
With
Rudolph leading at the head,
And off he
flew—he knew the way—
Delivering
each doll and sled.
