Charlie the Christmas Cat

It all started with a banana.

No, wait. That’s not quite right.

It all started with Paris.

I’ve always wanted to write a story that started with Paris. The Louvre. The Seine. Notre Dame. Paree.

Ok. Let me just clarify that I’m not in Paris. My friend Myra is. For Christmas. And today is the first day that I’m going to check on her cat, Boots. Boots Pierre. I don’t know if he is aware of his full moniker. Right now his only interest is in cat treats.

So I hang with Boots for a while. Do the usual cat chores. And as I’m on my way out the door, I notice a banana in Myra’s kitchen. It is alreCharlie the Christmas Cat5 years ago in Christmas Prose

I’ve heard it said that freezing to death is not actually a bad way to die. Well, I think I’ve been slowly freezing to death every winter for the past ten years, and it’s not a pleasant way to die either. I wonder how anyone came to that conclusion, since nobody who’s been through the whole process is really in a condition to speak about it. I think it’s maybe just supposed to be the late stages of it that aren’t bad, and maybe I haven’t been that far, but it still seems to me that if it’s bad for a while it doesn’t really matter if it’s not that bad right at the end.

Poor Child's Letter to SantaA Poor Child’s Letter to Santa

Dear Santa,

So it’s finally December,
And I really need to say...
I’ve been waiting to write this,
Since the middle of May.

Mommy’s sick again,
There’s blood in her cough.
A man came the other day,
He shut our electricity off.

And Daddy’s still not back,
Will he be here this year?
Last night when I asked,
Mommy broke down in tears.

Santa, I won’t ask for much,
I don’t really want much at all.
Just for things to be happy again,
For Daddy to come down the hall.

Also a new dress for Mommy,
Her’s is getting pretty old.
Maybe a new coat for me,
