A Visit From St. Nick, Or Is It?A Poem by Michael StevensA 2nd Amendment Christmas!Twas the night before Christmas,
and all through the house
I'm lying awake with my double-pump
shotgun, all the lights have been doused
My protection is hung around my
neck with great care
Anyone pretending to be Santa had
better beware
My money's all snuggled in a coffee
can,
This time I'll be waiting; it won't
happen again
Visions of attempted larceny dance
in my head
I'm laying on pins and needles,
here in my bed
The blond that I met at the bar; don't
ask me her name,
Slept in her underwear beside me,
but I'm too wired to do the same,
When out on the lawn arose such a
clatter
It sounded like some stupid son of
a b***h was raising a ladder
I so wanted to explode the window
with a 'flash!',
But I figured any action yet would
be a bit rash
I'd wait until the b*****d was
inside; then I couldn't miss
Then the dumb-s**t thief, my a*s he
could kiss
Then by the light of the moon
reflecting off the new fallen snow,
I'd fill that stupid son of a b***h
so full of holes;
When what to my paranoid eyes did
appear,
I'm not sure, cause I was so full
of fear
It appeared to be a fat man dressed
like some sort of clown
Well, whatever he was, he wouldn't
be hanging around
Very much longer; I cocked the trigger
with a shaking hand
And gave him both barrels and
double pumped the man
He flew backwards in a spray of
red;
He tried to hold his guts in, but
soon he was dead
I turned on the light; the bimbo
was screaming
In through the window the
streetlight was beaming
The dead guy had been carrying some
sort of bag
Before I sent him to Hell; inside
were presents with a tag
I picked one up and read the
inscription
"To Freddy from Santa";
inside was a box of shells and a subscription
To 'Hair-Trigger Protection
Magazine'; just what I wanted
Even so, my unshakable belief in
fire arms continued on undaunted
I don't believe he was actually who
he said he was
I know this, because I saw it on
Fox News, and, because
They're the only network that tells
me the truth,
I never listen to anything else to
learn what to do
He was probably from the
government; come to take my guns
I heard it on Fox; they'll keep
tightening the laws until our rights are done,
Leaving people like me defenseless,
If you ask me and Fox News; so damn
senseless!,
And leaving the emperor in the
White House free to carry out his plan,
And that is to have total control
over all the land
I went to the reefer and opened a
beer,
And not just any beer, malt liquor's
in here!
In the meantime, Blondie has fled
I'm proud of my actions this night,
pretend Santa is dead, dead, dead!
