slurred speech, a poem by yosh dow
why not add happy holidays?
to that narrative,
right behind merry christmas,
if that’s your thing…
carry out your positivity
assuming you radiate any positivity.
its understood someone may not simply
go out of their way to say Happy Hanukkah
if that person wasn’t a jew.
that person on the receiving end-
may be wise to express their narrative
and respond to you with their own
seasonal greeting
all demographics should garner your best wishes.
that’s only playing fair
you protest nothing by “choosing sides”
the side you now choose is arrogance.
