The Bellboy's Christmas
The Biblical scholars assembled.
At the hotel I watched them convene
And heard them assert in their seminars
How false was the Bethlehem scene.
Not a single shepherd appeared, they said,
Much less a miraculous star,
And as for the Magi, they murmured,
What a marvelous myth they are.
But out with the rats in the hotel's alley
Where the dumpsters block the sky,
I swear on that cold December morning
I heard Christ in a newborn's cry.
