Beware the Jolakotturinn (Yule Cat). I live in Iceland's frosty clime. I eat those who do not buy new clothes during Yuletide, purchase socks or be devoured. In the summer I frequent Florida's beaches.

There is nary a fault
In the loveliness he stole
As Basil did for Dorian
He covered her sinful soul
