-
The hustle and bustle of stampeding feet
Trampling store clerks and rushing the streets
Christmas is near you can feel all the tension
The most terrifying experience of the entire year
Hiding behind counters is the only refuge ninja
From bruises and cuts and scraped up elbows
Angry customers screaming for help
Screeching for toys, enough to make your ears bleed
"WHY'D I WAIT SO LATE THIS YEAR?!" gonk
"WHY CAN'T I FIND WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR?!" stressed
"DO YOU CARRY THIS IN THIS STORE?!"
"HURRY UP! SHOW ME! WHERE?!" scream
It's the same as always yet they don't get it straight talk2hand
Warpathic, psychotic, punch throwing shoppers
Destroying all who slightly make them wait
Now to pray behind the old bullet holed counter
Why do I have to work so late gonk
Finally the calmness, tranquility, and silence
Almost time to close and walk out the front doors whee
Of course when there's a silence you get hit by a storm
One last wave to wreck and devastate this poor store eek
"GET OUT OF MY WAY OR I WILL DESTROY YOU!!" evil
"SHUT IT SIR I SAW THAT LAST TOY FIRST!!" stressed
After violence is exchaged they finally leave
So fast was the day my head's literally spinning
And just to think I might actually make it
I look at the schedule with tear stained reason
I'm on duty for the rest of the season

- I love the last two lines<3 The over all concept made me giggle. xD The one thing I'd like to point out, however, is that using a specific style when writing will help you a great deal. Using stanzas would be a vast improvement to your already amazing writing. ^^ Write more often~
