a very orange non-denominational pre-winter solistice celebration

if this desire to open up that consumer force
is starting to overwhelm the way a whaft of freeze can do
close up
bundle up
tighten your grip around this spending reality

if this longing to spend away hurt and depression
looms over the city like the oxygen flow we take for granted

dip in
swalllow this pain relief faster than you can say supercali…

if the air of giving becomes the desire to get
presenting itself in a mystic array of ‘festivity’
under whelm
over contemplate
think about the joys of free love rather than cheap party favours
