Year of the Golden Boar (for Jennifer L. Knox)

In my hut
every year
is the Year
of the Golden Boar.
It starts off fun in January
and then
by October
I'm sick of The Golden Boar
and his moody brooding.
Here's why:
He breaks stuff
like my candy
canes and the taffy-
he gets into the taffy.
What a mess every year.
I won't even go into
the Golden Boar
on vodka.
