A lot of us gotta work
And there’s’a lotta work to get done.
Schleping all over town
Sometimes, it’s not even fun.
But, it’s Christmas-
And it’s Kwanzaa-
And it’s Solstice-
And it’s Chanukah!
And if we can believe enough
These holidays might not be so tough.
You’re mad at me about something
I’m mad at you ‘bout…I don’t know what!
We don’t all get together enough to get stuck in this same old rut.
I’m probably wrong, alright? I’ll admit it.
I can confess if you can forgive it.
Maybe Gabriel was right,
And there’s nothing to fear…
All I want for Christmas is Christmas,
This year.
Let’s make Christmas!

Marcos de la Guagua The Bronx, New York
De la Guagua = of the bus, of us. Insight-driven roots-radical rapper, music/dance-maker, Afri-Boricua folklorista, Christian. I work on wholeness in a world that divides and conquers because we are emotion and intellect. We all need a Bible, a hymnal & a drum to know where we're going and where we come from, a person becomes a person among people, and a nation needs freedom, land & dance-halls. ... more
