Dear Santa, I don't want to set the world on fire or learn how to fly
Some places are so humid you could trim your tree with fish if you wish
The place I live is much too dry, it would seem, to do any such thing
So I tend to lean to swimming upstream with a mouth full of dust
After I import the weapons with which to arm bears and export toxic waste
My poisons inflicted on the poor, there is no way I can present myself as virtuous

LBRY is a decentralized content marketplace. I price the PDF versions of my work at approximately half of the Kindle price because I receive the entire amount rather than a royalty percentage.
Most of my work is free. A tip as small as 5 LBC (approximately $0.15) really helps, and it all goes to me.

New! I created a Haiga with the intention of honoring women artists and creatives. I have affordable prints, postcards, magnets, and mugs featuring my Haiga available from Deviant Art.
