So This Is Christmas?

Folder: 
2002

None of us are happy.

None of us are smiling.

None of us are healthy.

None of us are mild.

Two of you are dying

Dying to be thin

Two of you are crying

Crying to live again

One of you is laughing

Fondling the gun in your hand

One of you is ranting

That earth is a barren land

All of you are singing

Blubbering about your pain

All of you are screaming

There's never any gain

So this is Christmas?

What have we learned?

Our own genius will drown us

In this horrifical world

Why do you bother

To pretend that it's merry

Stop lying to yourselves

Joy in life is narry

Fa la la la la

la la

la

la.
