Finger points gently. /
He holds forth under the tree. /
Santa says, “Not yet.”

Bare tree, empty house: /

Emptying your /

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.
