Epiphany by Oohan V. Joslin

I stripped it

shoved its tinsel

 in a black bin bag

dropped the baubles

 on top

instantly made

the blackness inside bright.

 

Its pastel lights housed

 in their original box

cheerless now

in this new year light

makes mockery

of festivity

 

re-establishing mundanely

trees

to their proper place as garden greenery.

Birds carol

the manifestation of

Spring
