Sufi Style
delicious
nutritious
archives
houses packed tight
with brightly dressed pines
equally aloof of their roots
as the starry-eyed gawkers amongst
leaving me to wonder
has it been another 365 already?
slightly longer than a circle complete
but no more in doubt
despite its protruding linearity
and locus absentia
all things of little importance
when santa comes calling
ripe with presents
awaiting the denuding
of both colored paper
and immateriality
besides yule time logs
warming slipper-clad feet
and self denial alike
joy to the world
the horde succumbs.
