OBEY XMAS

i want to obey
the christmas tree, shipwrecked against the big front windows
weighed down by fake starlight

and glass dolls
hanging
from wire and hooks

obey the porcelain angel, her white arms open in a sign of forgiveness
the tree up her ass
her eyes painted on

she lives in heaven
with my grandfather, my dead friends, and richard nixon
and has a set of instructions on how to move through the world

what to do with all the fake icicles

the needles falling
green to the ground
