He’s coming down your chimney tonight.
Krampus comes just once a year.
Lock up your naughty children as he’ll Ho Ho Hoist them away.
It’s all part of the service.
He wishes you a very Merry Christmas.

Ding dong Christmas Bells are ringing.
What a Merry time we’ll have.
Sanctuary.
An oasis in a flood.
A psycho.
Dry clothes. Warmth and a welcome.
Wait..what was that? A psycho!!!!

You can’t pick your family, especially your mother-in-law.
Traditions are important.
There is no stopping some people if they want to practice them.
Voodoo anyone?

It’s the light that will always burn, even if something has put every other light out.
Lights on the tree, lights in the sky.
Everyone all over the universe enjoys a Christmas feast.
This is a Christmas dish that you won’t want to be part of.

You can pick up all kinds of things when you go on a foreign mission.
Our government is there to help us.
To look after us.
Not bleed us dry.
This corruption comes right from the top.
Happy New Year.
