Happy Fricking Holidays!A Poem by Michael StevensAnother Kool-Aider!Up on the rooftop, there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what's the matter
I put on my jacket and staggered out in the snow, I had an idea what it was, but for certain, I didn't know
I took my 12-gauge, 'cause I've seen on Fox that lots of drug- addicted minorities want to steal my big screen, thugs
are everywhere, a white guy like me can't be too careful I saw a dark shadow, so I thought about giving the trigger a pull,
but called out in frightful panic, "who's f*****g up there?" "Santa Claus", he answered, and I'm gonna need some new underwear,
I knew at that moment, it sure as hell wasn't jolly old St. Nick, just a loser looking to take what's legally mine--'click'
sounded quietly in the otherwise silent night, giving fair warning that I had him in my sights
"Don't f*****g move or I'll exercise my 2nd Amendment, God-given rights," thought I saw movement, and off it went,
the thunderous blast echoing up and down the street, there was a 'thud' as he hit the snow like a sack of bloody meat
I cautiously approached him and kicked him in the back, just to make sure, then felt for a pulse, which he lacked
Siren wails soon marred the quiet and formerly- peaceful scene, as I looked at the body--it wasn't recognizable, his face I mean
He'd done a great impression of making a blood angel in the snow, I looked at him, tried to place him, but I just didn't know
He wore some kind of old-fashioned red-colored disguise, had two empty sockets that used to hold his eyes
The cops arrived, and hid behind their cars, screaming, "drop it, punk!" I took one more glance at the bleeding, faceless, quiet hunk
of humanity lying in the snow, staining it red, dropped the weapon, and put my hand behind my head
I was immediately tackled, then shackled, and hauled to my feet, then one officer took me to a patrol car, opened the door, saying, "have a seat."
When we got to the jail, the other cops glowered at my sight, The guard said, "They'll be a lot of pissed kids, have a good night."
Next day, a picture of me, wearing orange, above the headline, "Santa-Killer!" Well, I'll be damned, the f****r was real, fine!
