Another holiday season
pumps its celebratory punch
through my mutant veins:
filling shiny pine-green boxes with love
and perpetuating my precarious survival
not just starkly but markedly
with renewed if darkened love
in courtly scroll set down
on angel-trumpeted cards
through a blood-tinged white silk-glove...
and I observe
what a marvelous gravity
it is
that pulls us together into
these memory-haunted-woods
to dwell in sociality
these cold golden-solstice weeks
which test the strongest
and so strain the weak and wizened
while yet by grand and unifying grace...
holiday's Christly energeiia
strengthens our sacred communal streak
