The Holiday Dysveptic.

His friends presented volumes
Which he will never read;
And various other trifles
He VOWS he doesn't need.
He got a lot of viands
Too rich for him to eat,
And slippers of strange patterns
Which failed to fit his feet.

Describe his state of mind.

And smiles will not grow dim.
It's simply his misfortune that
1t wasn't made for him.
