Barack Obama & family – Winter Wonderland karaoke

With Black Eyed Peas’ Fergie and Kermit the frog.

85 degrees Fahrenheit pass-out heat in

High Street shops, buying ‘ideal’ presents

Thwarted by the throng of scavenging shopppers.

Needing a Tardis or Starship Enterprise to

Time-travel multitask as I succumb to the

Winter blues syndrome, seasonal viruses.

Fine intentions to shop early giving way to

Retail blitz on the 23rd or Christmas Eve -

Before relative peace and quiet of cool Yule

With parents in Perth, media overkill avoided.
