A TSA Christmas:

A TSA Christmas:

'Twas the night before Christmas, when beyond the gate
the travelers were stirring, with some running late;

Their cupcakes were placed in the grey tubs with care,
In hopes after screening it still will be there;

The children were dressed up all tidy and neat,
except for the fact of no shoes on their feet;

And ma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
were ordered to pass through the body scan gap,

When out on the floor there arose such a clatter,
I turned on my heels see what's the matter.

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
eight TSA screeners all chubby and queer,

With a little old fellow, so jolly and thick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.

More rapid than eagles the screeners they came,
they whistled, and shouted, it was so insane;

"Now, spread 'em! Now, turn and take off that back brace!
There's bearded anomolies under your face!

To the right of the line! To the glass enclosed wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"

A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know he was nothing to dread;

He spoke not a word, but complied with the jerks,
They patted his crotch and he gave them a smirk,

Then laying a finger aside of thier nose,
they gave him a nod to put back on his clothes;

He sprang to his gate and then boarded his sleigh,
He seemed unamused as he taxied away

But I heard him exclaim, as the reindeer gave lift,
The TSA's stolen my bag with your gift!!!!
