Winter Poem; or Winter is a Disgusting Waste of Time (Reprint, with Revisions)

Snow is a cockamamy
excuse for people to be happy and festive
during the most depressing time of the goddamn year.

Snow causes pathetic people to say, "Look,
it's snowing. Boy that's pretty." or "Look,
we're gonna have a white christmas." or "Look,
I can piss my own name into that pristine whiteness."
or "Look at how I can write about the snow on my goddamn blog."

Snow is nature's way of taking your eye off the ball
you stupid moronic humans.
Don't you see? Winter
is depressing and stupid,
a lot like you.

Take it from me:
Winter is only good for holing up around a fire
and getting piss-drunk and reflecting on how
you've wasted another year holding off death.

Seriously, dude, what's your problem? A friend in my poetry class told me he liked your stuff, but I don't think it's funny. At all. How's it funny to be so negative all the time? Poetry should be about enlightening people, not dragging them down.

Except for the few of your poems that make my stomach roll, reading them is like being sprinkled with a little faerie dust. I like this one.
