An Atheist At Christmas Poem by Matthew Holloway

An Atheist At Christmas

Rating: 4.5


So we may not believe
in the story of the festivities
but we play along
to fit in with the crowd
so not to be a miser
we try and be jolly
sing the traditional songs
exchange gifts and raise a toast
attend the parties
eat the Christmas dinners
pull the crackers
laugh at those jokes
we play the commercial card
it's a holiday period
and so we try and fit in
so as not to appear
weird
