SEASONALS

each year beginning 
in early december
in his local supermarket
is a nasty outbreak
a rash of christmas carols
which in a mild form
just causes discomfort
but in more severe cases
can cause distress
depression leading to
panic attacks even
self harm -abuse
temporary madness
it is strongly advised to
wear dense ear plugs
and very dark glasses
for the whole period 
and avoid looking at
bright christmas lights
and other terrible
tinselly decorations
fortunately all this 
suddenly vanishes 
every cheery  january
harmless mindlessmuzac 
is gratefully restored
to surviving customers
