The Beheading

Updated: Apr 13, 2023

Man, I’ll behead you if the drug-store door,

Isn’t held open. My hands are so full

Of Christmas presents, and I am far too

Noble to dirty my hands opening

It. The Christmas spirit told anarchy,

Now painted in the minds-eye so clearly,

That Jesus would have forgiven anything;

For He gazed on swirling snow that evening!
