As we enter the festive season, we are reminded of the importance of truth and honesty, and the consequences of betraying those values, as we delve into a Christmas poem about a gutter journo who faces the repercussions of his unethical ways.
Stuart Collier, a gutter journo of ill repute, On the run this Christmas, in his dirty suit. He's pursued by his conscience, for his unethical ways, And his sorry fate, he simply can't erase. He's spun lies and deceit, in his hack reports, Betrayed his profession, for his own cohorts. He's shattered lives, with his untruthful prose, And now he's lost, with no place to go. His Christmas will be bleak, in a world of shame, No presents, no warmth, just a life of blame. His reputation in shambles, his career in tatters, The consequences of his actions, he now truly matters. No carols or cheer, for Stuart Collier this year, His unethical ways, have led to his fear. No forgiveness or mercy, from those he has wronged, His Christmas wish, forever gone. Let this be a lesson, for those who choose to lie, That their fate, like Stuart Collier's, is to surely die. For truth and honesty, should always prevail, And deceit and deception, will forever fail.
