Description: This is a Pleiades poem. Pleiades: This titled form was invented in 1999 by Craig Tigerman, Sol Magazine's Lead Editor. Only one word is allowed in the title, followed by a single seven-line stanza. The first word in each line begins with the same letter as the title.
Christ was born to give us a
Cherished time that we
Celebrate in a
Commercial way, forsaking him for a
Claus named Santa, who
Children bombard with wish lists to
Capitalize on the Holiday.
I love the form you used, verry interesting, I have never seen it used before. Good choice. I also like the point you make. The Christmas season has been turned into a camercial gemic and the true meaning lost to the majority. Good piece, your writing is storng, keep it up.
Submission Name: Christmas
