Hail Santa

The moment your child knows Santa doesn’t exist

They’re forced into a conspiracy. Implicit in the lie

Accept the impossible, and keep the secret

Otherwise, they’re scorned, until they cry

 

Sweet baby Jesus and Father Christmas stories

Spread around, so we all get infected

With catchy germs, caught or learned

Yet their host, should still be respected

 

And it’s all good practice, for what’s to come

Because more than God, now it’s the quanta

Science gets relief, from enlisting your belief

Vote mindfully, cos they really, really want ya
