the dwindling Christmas card list

my Christmas card
list is
down
to three.
i look at the thirty-five
names
that i've crossed out
over the years.
dead,
dead,
dead.
no longer in contact
with.
disappeared from 
the face
of the earth.
mad at me.
mad at me.
mad at me.
won't return calls.
they owe me money.
i owe them money.
in prison.
in rehab.
lost at sea.

I know. I only give cards to the grands and great grands that hold money.
