sur-realists generally don’t hang lights
or decorate trees, unless with skulls
or pendulum grandfathers showing 13 O’clock
they aren't down with mall or mistletoe, are they--
santas or sacraments……..births virgin
or un-births un-virgin
the 3 Magi--Moe Larry Curly
On the Road to Damascus, baybe
matter not, except for kix;
nor does midnight mass at the yokel
money shoppe--
an Andre Breton crucifix-totem pole
in some jungle
underneath an volcano
erect in mayan graveyards
suppository-supplication for the
ass-vent of Kali--the marvelous there
not generally readily apparent at
Cafe Sappho, like, near some
Redwood Emerald cyber-city
where emigres lunch on their
fancy pigsinablanket et esprisso
before the absurd, like, pre-Verdun, maybe--
or pre-Mirabeau
mais ou sont les neiges d’antan
something like dat
Handel played backwards
with say Hank 8th on
skeletal chords
that’s Xmasssssss, all anglo
saxon teutonica; mead and capons,
Falstaffian melancholy and aristos
sprayed with rose petal juice--
feasts/jousts/ officer gloom....dogs and footmen
in from the cold; the maidens
doing their best not to be booted out into
the plaguey rue
