Twas the week before Christmas
And Cratchit was hot
All through the halls
Were these little wet spots

Her anger was such
That her face was all red
And the steam from her ears
It encircled her head

"On paper you cretin"
"Not on my floor"
They just mopped it this morning"
"At a quarter to four"

The Artistes laughed so hard
That their easels did wiggle
Which they stood behind
So she couldn't see them giggle

The "Toons" as imagined
Went so berserk
That some wet themselves
Which just made for more work

As the Justins cavorted
Dancing with glee
They could barely contain it
Justin Continent Lee

While off on my rounds
I heard all the racket
Slammed down some good cheer
And hid the rest in my jacket

My flask's precious contents
Were getting quite light
Not the one that I drink from
No , that wouldn't be right

But the other large beaker
That laid down this false trail
And led Cratchit in circles
Chasing her tail

The pup's hidden safely
Away from this mess
Where she'll never find him
'Cause no-one will confess

So to all Merry Christmas
I leave nothing to chance
If you'll excuse me a moment
I must go change my pants

Sometimes nonsense isn't .

So the placebos ain't working,
It's quite obvious,
So back on the Elavil,
You're delirious.

(and hilarious too)....thank God I'm mentally stable......(I am....aren't I?)

Keep Ian well hidden
And Cratchet confused
And the holidays merry
For you, Dr. Moose!

Enjoyed! *G*

Hey Toe ,
Been a while since you stepped in .Good to hear from you my friend. Placebos or not ,things might be what they seem , in this place where when waking some can still dream .
