Rudolph was differently -abled As nearly everybody knows. He suffered discrimination because he had a nose that glows. All of the alt-right Reindeer Were bigoted and called him names. They never let poor Rudolph Participate in Reindeer games Then one foggy holiday Eve O.S.H.A came to say “This hostile workplace violates rules There will be hefty fines to pay!” Now all of  the Reindeer hate him but learned to hide it carefully. They just spent two weeks in training For Reindeer sensitivity.

Rudolph, the differently-abled Reindeer
Rudolph was differently -abled As nearly everybody knows. He suffered discrimination because he had a nose that glows. All of the alt-right Reindeer Were bigoted and called him names. They never let poor Rudolph Participate in Reindeer games Then one foggy holiday Eve O.S.H.A came to say “This hostile workplace violates rules There will be hefty fines to pay!” Now all of  the Reindeer hate him but learned to hide it carefully. They just spent two weeks in training For Reindeer sensitivity.
The familiar tune updated for modern sensibilities-O.S.H.A.  pronounced O-Sha  is the government agency that regulates safety in the workplace.  I have always hated the original Christmas Carol because of the  hateful behavior of the other reindeer and their hypocrisy  in the final verse
