JINGLE HELL

One month theme for GBU Poetry Hour..

JINGLE HELL

Jiggle, juggle, those 'em there damn bells
Hell arises up to heaven as the sun goes kerplunkin' down
Jungles of hell amass, while we carol on our way
Holidays of red & green bring joy, well that's what they say

Damn the torpedos happily & cash in your freakin' certs
Gifts give into commerce while the poor give up nutritive food
Sneakers, video games and skittish vouchers cost an arm & a leg
All those wannabe posers want to step up another peg

SO
Jingle, bangle, jango ... let's come up fresh & clean
Research, rescue, be open and give instead of receive
Open up your generous nature and stop this silly spell
Be quick & stay oh so humble b4 U go to bloody Jingle Hell

[there is no more from m..]

grate job i liked this poem :)

[THERISA]

Great job of mixing, the serious with the whimsical, in your poem. Brought a few much needed chuckles, while reading it. Sadly, too many people are caught in Jingle Hell already. Thinking quantity and expensive gifts, can buy true happiness of the soul. Thank you, for sharing this thoughtful poem with us.

[Cool Handless Luke]

nice and refreshing spin on the apathy and greed so common in a time when we should celebrate and rejoice and give. so many live for christmas and the decorations etc. they spend thousands on lights and trees etc while some poor shmuck would die for a turkey leg or a bath or a warm bed for the night. jingle hell is relavent to the commercialization of christmas. nice job.
