Ready your four bits and a buck:
on the toasted breeze, the repetitive jingle
induces a joyous, anticipant tingle.
Amok,
kids scamper for the ice cream truck.

A UFO per witnesses' information
reported to a passing traffic cop:
glinting metallic blue, grey on top—
windswept,
turns out, from Kai's birthday celebration.
— § —
wants to show who's boss
storms in demanding, outraged—
I don't give a toss

We join in mirth and madness
to celebrate two massive fictions,
impossible, inconsistent depictions—
Wake up!
Time to swap presents and feign gladness.

Ostracized! How still to stay in the loop?
I'll find some method yet to overhear;
Or an ally or mole, a social buccaneer,
A snitch
who can be induced to leak the scoop…
