“On Seeing Ornaments for Sale…”

My first new poem since the end of April’s NaPoWriMo challenge. Peace to your !


On Seeing Ornaments for Sale at Sam’s Club
More than Three Months Before Christmas (2020)

Pre-pandemic, I’d have grumped and griped,
“It’s only September 2nd—cripes!”
But being sick of covid-19,
I don’t feel up to making a scene.
Whatever. I give the merest shrug.
It’s all I can muster. Blah humbug.
