Tiger's dreaming of a Christmas,
Just like the ones he use to know,
Where he had strange sex,
And sent it all on text,
And kept his wife's radar low.
Tiger's dreaming of a Christmas,
With every support check he writes,
May Elin's days be merry and bright,
She told Tiger to get out of her sight.

Poetry: Alone on Christmas
by Sid de Knees
It didn't come!
He smiled, and softly said my name,
and I was struck by his red cheeks,
in fact I thought of them at night,
by John White
The poet settles, watching.
His metal bench, his perch,
as the night’s illuminated
by streetlights casting their
beams
by Emma Willey
Poetry: Christmas Without Him
It won't be the same this year for me,
Without hit presence under the tree,
I don't mind

She sits in a corner, alone
A string of saliva slowly creeps down a crease in her wrinkled, time-worn face.
by Happy Poet
Christmas Alone
Christmas time has come & gone in the blink of an eye
Like standing on a platform, as your train flashes
