Merging one day into the next,
the shop-gazing and
present-giving,
over-cooking and
forced-feeding,
card-hanging and tree-trimming,
runs along through week-end and
week-end;
until, beyond the new year's
rising,
it merges yet again, in
seamless sale-time,
awash with tawdry glittering,
to rival Christmas and its
trimming,
which dustily collapses in the
end.
