Saint Nicholas--Christmas
"Saint Nicholas--Christmas"
Is bleu a Christmas color? Is art, only what it means to you? Sometimes. Power goes both way.
Luke Cage, in the 80's comics, with simply called by the big dude: "Fist." Anyway, he would also say: "Christmas." Have we lost that Luke Cage and Fist? Now we have androids. Goblins and brownies; plus, angels and mutants made Earth crowded enough (allegorically), now my phone records everything, thinking I'm a normal man, and tantalizes with tempts concerning the reward of normal treats, watching me give it my own damn confusion, yet unfolded, in a symmetrical laundry basket, before even the wash. The cactus was--CRANKY.
Yeah, but water lives in there; plus, aloe is near.
Saint Nicholas. Christmas. Bing Crosby as a singing priest. PEANUTS with Snoopy and Charlie Brown; also, Linus and Lucy. A doghouse that magically morphs into a World War One dog-fighting vehicle, or a vessel built for war.
They say Saint Nicholas got in a fist fight at a fancy council. Maybe he did. Sometimes, we believe what they tell us. And sometimes, it's true. There's something remembered about the Spirit of Christmas--in my opinion, and in the hearts of millions, not just me. Build a family snowman. Make an angel, even in the dirt. Be a dog. A holy hound for the Lord. And, Saint Nicholas. Remember . . .
