Interior Christmas (With Snow Angel)
by Andrew J. Stone
The eagerness of children to
do what we are afraid to
cannot help but move us Is
their willingness the motive
in us that makes us reject? The
really important things, I mean
my son’s twentieth Christmas present,
the millionth light on the roof,
what do these things do to us? We
come into the Season with colored canes
black-white, our garland stripped
and buried beneath the ice And an
angel appears, simply because it is
unexpected of the things we know
Writers Bio
Andrew J. Stone is more of a humbug than a Grinch. During the Holidays he tends to fill himself with eggnog and coffee. He also sleeps with one eye open. This is a lie. Recent work has appeared at Danse Macabre, First Stop Fiction, Carcinogenic Poetry, Yes, Poetry, and Short, Fast, & Deadly, among other places. He is currently seeking publication for his first chap of poetry titled, "Teenage Agnst & the Ekphrastic Exercise." He was also awarded a National Gold medal from the Scholastic Art & Writing awards in 2010 for his poetry. His words will stab you at: http://andrewjstone.blogspot.com/.
