James Finn Garner -1994 Politically Correct bedtime Stories...

 

Twas the night before solstice and all through the co-op

Not a creature was messing the calm status quo up.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,

Dreaming of lentils and warm whole-grain breads.

We'd welcomed the winter that day after school

By dancing and drumming, and burning the Yule,

A more meaningful gesture to honour the planet

Than buying more trinkets for Mum or Aunt Janet,

Or choosing a tree just to murder and stump it,

And dress it all up like a seasonal strumpet.
