Reduced to Zero

It all started with the Christmas letter,
then there were 2 Christmas cards
missing from the collection,
false accusations against card corporations,
a breakdown in teamwork,
and the final blow, a broken toe,
too hideous to photograph.


Not just a simple mistake
to be forgiven, this stubbing.
But it's Christmas and we go
from zero
to one hundred and twenty
in six seconds.
Get your rear in gear.
Game On!

    Concern for the novelist and condolences to loofing.
