HOLIDAY PREPARATIONS

The Tree

The difference is light, which the twittering

negotiations of sheltering sparrows does not dim.

Nor does the din of hundreds of onlookers

alter their cadence or volume even one decibel.

Yes, the season of enraged consumption

has officially opened even the paupers purse.

Free goods are offered, whetting appetites

to need what might surely be simple whimsy.
