Black Friday

Mobs at the Mall

By: Charles Giuliano - Nov 26, 2015

Black Friday

Mad rush
From Thanksgiving
Just after pie
To the mall
Jumping the gun
On Black Friday
Joy of giving
Buy, buy, buy
Don’t let bargains
Evade your eye
Toys ‘r’ us
For under the tree
Artificial ones
Last forever
Not replanted
By P’Town artist
My pal Jay Critchley
If only there were
More irony
In all the marketing
Corporate greed
Not the spirit
Child in the manger
Breath of livestock
Keeping infant warm
Cold and unwelcome
No room at the inn
Caesar’s census
Far from home
Under a bright star
In Bethlehem
Family of David
Born to die
For our sins
