Sex, Jesus, or Santa Claus

I believe it's one of nature's laws,

amid the giggles and guffaws,

intense love and anticipation

longing for immediate gratification

all of this is...just because

of sex, Jesus, and Santa Claus.



Father, son, and Holy Ghost,

which one do I want the most?

Carnal knowledge, life ever after,

or gleeful joy and childish laughter.

Just thinking of it causes me to pause.

Do I want sex, Jesus, or Santa Claus?



Perhaps all three, but what a quandary,

mind is fogged, eyes are bleary.

A catalyst for commentary.

All these decisions make me weary.

A human being with all my flaws.

Must I choose...sex, Jesus, or Santa Claus?

I like this. I wouldn't have ever thought of those three things being talked about together. Very creative.
