Every year nearly 3000 people sleep rough over Christmas - and that's just in London. Think about that.

Alternative Christmas



Decorate.
Oh we'll be brave.
We'll not out a shout,
we'll not cast about
our resolve will not cave
so avoid the wrong list and expect our reward.
Sing.

Oh we'll be strong.
we'll live life to the full
shun the death of a fool
hardened against wrong,
locked against reality,
curtains drawn for created palace.
Glow-faced glass shine your warming carols on us.
Trancing news, soothe our unstretched attention span.
Succomed to an OD?
Better him, better you, than me.

And through the window;

Your overstacked presents -
an excess I resent
is a dream I dream for me
it's real you know; try silence, try listen, try see.

My life is full of pain ,
injected money into rejecting vein.
Steal to jack, jack to dim;
bleak it is but bleak is me.
