If only it didn\'t depend on people with certain dodgy rug-hairstyles - but it\'s more serious than that.

A riot of wit and rebellion! This poem flips celestial norms with cheeky irreverence and sharp satire, all while winking at modern life’s odd priorities; tolls, tariffs, and Wi-Fi. It’s bold, brash, and entirely entertaining, like a divine comedy with a punk heart.

I feel this can only be reffering to one person, and myself hope he is also rejected from hell when he gets there, loved the read

This is such a brilliant and playful contrast between two iconic figures! I love how you’ve woven their similarities and differences into such vivid imagery—right down to the lap vs. the shoulder and the yearly visit vs. constant temptation. The rhyming flows smoothly, and the riddling tone keeps it engaging. Great job capturing the duality of these two \'red-dressed\' figures—one bringing joy, the other mischief!

Wait. Santa is an anagram for Satan? Wonderful write and, with the consumerist mania that comes around the chubby elf\'s season, one might suspect they COULD be the same person! 😱 aAnd of course, the \"naughty list Santa\" really is rooted in Krampus, who far more looks like Satan. So, there\'s that too! LOL! Wonderful poem, my friend. A fave for sure. 🌹👏

I knows the Christmas one - some fat beardy bloke in a red costume and welly boots, who always makes a mess of the lounge, covering it in soot! Dunno how he gets down the chimney, but I\'m gonna keep a fire going this Christmas Eve night. That\'ll teach him! heehee,

Sounds like Christmas and the devil. The first one comes once a year. The other one is never far from us.

Oh, such a playful poem; a cheeky meditation on duality, how closely virtue and mischief can wear the same festive red coat. With tight, rhythmic rhyming and a grin tucked behind the lines, it teases out the parallels between Santa Claus (the Saint) and the Devil (Old Nick), both dressed in red, both iconic, both offering something to those who believe. There’s a mischievous symmetry in their swapped roles: one omnipresent, whispering temptations, the other delighting in seasonal generosity. And that line; “one sits on your shoulder, the other you sit in his lap,” brilliantly captures the moral topsy-turvy we all navigate. Even the final couplet lands with a wink: whether through snowy fields or moral tests, the promise of a “gift” remains, though the nature of the gift may be quite different. It’s so witty, wry, and satirically sweet. A timely reminder that the line between naughty and nice isn\'t always drawn in snow. 🕊️🙏🏻

This is a hauntingly beautiful piece, short but emotionally intense. The idea of cold that burns is really striking, showing how something that once felt warm and loving can turn painful. Well written!!!!

No joyful relationship is without pain and, though cliché, no pain, no gain. This poem speaks truth, my friend. Well done! 🌹👏

The stages some people go through as they age. Worries, deceptions pile up. Those around us start disappearing. The few that remain might turn sour, disillusioned and spoil our mood in turn. Hope exists in youth, as we know our life is yet to be lived.

arqios said:

Here is such an ache with emotional paradox; the flames of cold are a contradiction in themselves, that may hint at a relationship once burning with passion that’s now frozen into something painful and inescapable. The cold isn’t just physical; it’ could be an emotional detachment, the withdrawal of warmth once shared. “Passion’s sweat turned solid glue” could suggest that intense intimacy has become a binding force, no longer freeing but constricting. The icy touch that “burns like fire” captures how emotional numbness can hurt just as deeply as raw feeling. Superb stuff. 🙏🏻🕊️
