Home for the holidays
Cliche, cliche, cliche
The past is not present
Yet triggers abound
Old photograph,
Accumulates dust
VHS of The best
Of Louis Frank
Family banter
Brings up bile
Of the ultimate past
Reinforcing the game boxes
With tape
Wearing headdresses
For a laugh
Teasing small children
The gift wishes
Include Barbie
her pink automobile
Bribing one of us
So the choice of tree
At the Christmas farm
Will finish before dark
Will allow us
To drink hot cider,
Obligatory cinnamon sticks, sooner
Biggest tree
Arguments abound
Let the lights go
