Bitter after taste of Christmas

Bitter after taste of Christmas

A Poem by Entrelesnuages

A

sparkly

shimmer

A glow

Then A glimmer

My wish is to be thinner

Funny how holiday cheer

Only makes us reach for more beer

When faced with bright lights, gifts

Our downward spiral becomes so swift

The cheeriness of how we ought to be

The intimidating notion of caring for a tree

Seeing our family brings out all our ghosts

It’s a forced reunion with those we hate most

The same holidays supposed to bring out our best

Only make us acknowledge that we are such a mess

The presents not thoughtful the turkey always too small

Make a Merry

Christmas

To one

And to all

This was a very bad attempt to make this look like a Christmas tree. Hmm upon reflexion it kind of looks like a bell. Any feedback appreciated.
