Betwixtmas
A Poem About The Time Between Christmas and New Year
Fiona mentioned the โBetwixtmasโ for the time between Christmas and New Year and that seemed an opportune moment for a fun poem.
Music will be a cover of Chuck Berry's "Run Run Rudolph" by Jay Shepard which you can buy below.

Christmas Day Then Boxing Day
Then Where The Heck Are We Now?
Itโs Five Days Til New Years Day
And Where Are We I Donโt Know
๐ฒโ๐
Timewise We Are In A Spin
Christmas Has Gone , No New Year
For A While Til It Comes In
Where am I? I just canโt see
๐ฒโ๐
We are now In Betwixtmas
And Yes There Is No Escape
Til New Year Rings In Alas
Weโre stuck in this sorry state
Betwixtmas, Betwixtmas NO!!
Betwixtmas, Betwixtmas GO!!

The Irony of Flying While We Bomb the "World's Greatest Terrorย Regime"
Ah, the irony of flying at this moment in time as the United States is simultaneously bombing Iranโ-โ the nation officials have insisted for decades is "The World's Greatest Terror Regime"โ-โwhile the TSA is on a go-slow, courtesy of a funding squeeze that's left its officers unpaid, quitting in droves, and turning checkpoints into something like slow-moving bread lines.
