T'was the week before Christmas, and all through the town

Not a faerie was caroling, on the streets, not a sound

Neither hither nor tither did festivities grip

And t'were no echoes of gifts being gift

The elves and the gnomes lay asleep in their beds

No thoughts of revelry nor candy were to swim through their heads

Except for one elf, and her motley pack

Who sought to spread jolly all over the map

So her and her own went out to the town

To see what kind of merry bash to throw down

Their goal was to let the faeriefolk know

What seeds of joy holiday spirit could sow

But then there came a wrench in the works

One of their own, ready to lurk

And acheive his goal, such as it was

To steal some fresh pastries, from Haven with love

And thus as it was he worked on his plan

While outwardly seeming as one of the band

He instructed his servants to work to spread cheer

While he, himself, kicked his plan in high gear

He waited until the elf was away

Spreading merry and giving reasons to play

To quietly enact his dastardly scheme

Although, really, it was more petty than mean

He crept down the chimney, like a famous character

Except, instead of girth, he used high tech plungers

So quickly down the archaic smokestack he stole

Through the soot and the dust, he haphazardly plowed

One eye on surviving, both on the prize

Which lead to his fall which lead to a cry

but in the end, make it he did

So he dusted himself off and readied his bib

And made his way to the elven kitchen

And end of the road, and goal of his mission

To act like Santa in the stories of old

To hungrily devour the cookies of gold
