So this is Christmas

We're back to square one

Fossil fuel dependence -

Yep, that smoking gun.

~

And so this is Christmas

And while we revel

Exponential gases

The bears bedevil.

~

A very melty Christmas

We hope you endure

The loss of your sea ice

If not, well, bonjour.

~

And so this is Christmas

For weak and for strong

May airstrikes and attacks

No longer burgeon.

~

And so happy Christmas

For Sunni and Kurd

Let no-one be detained

And no-one tortured.

~

A very wary Christmas

Let's spread some good cheer

Swap bullets with brandy

Smart bombs with brassieres.

~

And so back to Christmas -

Well, what have you done

I'd not expected Eden

But neither Sodom.

~

A God awful Christmas

Not looking like fun

For not much has changed since

Lennon was gunned down.

~

A satirical Christmas

And a sappy New Year

Let's hope we survive it

Not likely, I fear.

~

War aint over

Pollies want it

War's forever

Media exploits it.

War is clover

Business adores it

War's ensured for

Generals wrought it.

War aint over

Fools glory in it

Wars naught resolve

Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh shit!
