The Holidays Loom


stars
and
red
and
green
smell
the
pine
gold
frankincense
and
myrrh
brandy
in the
nog
if only
or
maybe
I hadn’t
and
then
again what
if
and
never mind
that was
then
and
then
is yesterday
our histories
set
in stone
i have
books
to read
and
republicans
to mash
and
children to
feed
waste
no
more
time
on
yesterday
we are
old
with
little time
use
it well
be
free
