Yule Tide Disaster

For your disbelief, you're paid what you've earned,
I saw your tears when the Christmans tree burned.

All creatures were staring, including the mouse,
Your wife brokedown as flames burned the house.

The presents you wrapped with so much care,
Consumed by flames, you cried, "it's unfair.

"You told your children, "Santa delivered those gifts,"
That's what you get for reinforcing those myths.

For the holiday, you thought you were set,
Your Xmas misfortune has increased your debt.

Immersed in the Christmas joy, you were rollin' hard,
Just last week, you maxed out every credit card.

You were intoxicated by the yule tide cheer,
All your valubles burned, which you held dear.

Your roof, your roof, your roof was on fire,
The tree had enough, it decided to retire.
