I really like Christmas.
It’s sentimental, I know, but I just really like it.
I am hardly religious,
I’d rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu, to be honest;
And yes, I have all of the usual objections
to consumerism, the commercialisation of an ancient religion,
to the westernisation of a dead Palestinian
press-ganged into selling Playstations and beer
— But I still really like it.
