No One Knows

No one knows when that day or hour will come - neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son; only the Father knows. Mark 13:32
When I hear sidewalk Santa’s screaming bell
then ‘tis the season of shopping hell
Christmas jammed up against Halloween.
Santa smokes a blunt, a tragically blasé 
beggar making the holiday scene.

No one knows but I choose to believe 
and you can feel free to call me naive
but, someday, there will come a time when 
Christmas will not be swaddled in malaise 
and what was done once will be done again.

No one knows your epiphany’s appearance 
that God, right now and always, is with us.
