The tree is up -festooned in a mindless haphazard way,
bearing slightly to the left
but still up.
The lights are up -
fiercely cellotaped to window sills
and door jambs with questionable faith
but they're up - for now!
The welcome wreath isn't -
it was, briefly, but subsequently was found
lying on the doorstep in a defiant manner
so it's banned!
What else is up?
my spirits - raised as high as the volume
of the music currently playing
"He is still the Christ of Christmas - still Immanuel!"
