Dear mouse ~~ as *my friend* Crayon would say, stop using his name in vain. For all that we disagree politically on much, he's not silly.
Considering what Capitalism has done to the spirit of the season, I have a difficult time imagining exactly what your gripe about joining that spirit with those who have, obserdedly, worked for the betterment of their fellow humans would be.
Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars
