soak her in...adjusting her ***

on her tHrOnE, biting her nails

and masking the mask.

kicking away like a newborn

Christ, modeling the couple--

rallied, tinseled, and ribboned

round by the support of family

and friends.

spine sending apologetic signals

all over the place, both friendly and

unfriendly radio stuff.

as a patch of snow splats and

melts on her crown.

yes, This is Christmas...
