Tonight's Poet Corner: A Petty Thief's Christmas
A Petty Thief's Christmas
by Belinda Roddie
I stole a giant's sock and now I
use it as a stocking. I've stuffed
it full of candy canes that I lifted
from the store. My tree I plain uprooted
from the governor's backyard. Now
I decorate it with dragon scales - the
reptilian bastard was asleep. I wrapped
presents with paper I scrounged
from a lady's gifting stand. All the
puddings and hams in the fridge
are from an ogre's pantry. I will
gorge myself on sweets that I didn't
have to pay a penny for, and later,
I'll snag Santa's sleigh and take it
for a much deserved joyride.
