Monday morning writing joke: “The plan”

The plan

There once was a writer who wrote Santa. /

He asked for a book marketing plan to /

Put his novel on top /

And not be a flop. /

Now, he only has to write another 80 grand-ah.

Bare trees captured /

by the shallow reflection /

where lost leaves float free.

and sheds all its warmth.
