Ahem.
(sonnet #MMMMMMMMMCMI)
Clark Griswold's lines, and his philosphy hail
The world I knew, and how my daddy thence
Approached life, like verbatim in aught sense,
Until to watch is not home movies' trail,
Yet half seems tis the way back home t'avail,
And leaves me nigh confused, the joys' pretense
Alive, yet from a world since perished, whence
I'm left behind to wander, searching bail.
Thus Chevy Chase and crew'd regale us fer
The umpteenth Xmas, ev'ry skirmish through
Fraught minutes like we used to know in tour,
This zombie 'poc'lypse we have now a crew
Of empty souls and mindless, who'd bestir
Vain motions, all in lieu, oh LORD, of You.

Enough of me... except I seem to never shut up.
