Happy New Year
Grinning cynical Santa,
pipe perfect:
“Here’s the presents…
get on with life.
Let me be blunt,
no mo ho ho ho.
The elves got me some
absinthe, and I’m singing
the blues. Aw, heck…
It’s always a downer after
delivery…postpartum
present depression. Like
Sisyphus, do it again
next year. And, I’m not
even real.
So, gird your loins, boys
and girls, and get ready
for the sleigh ride.”

It dates back to the Roman era and basically means to tuck in your toga (or whatever garment you had on the lower half of your body), or draw it up and tie it, so that your legs were free to move. Otherwise you could be less mobile and agile when in battle.
