The Christmas Song, Cathy Style
Try not to sing it - betcha can't
Chess’s nuts are roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost punched him in the nose
Auntie Carol’s being hung by a wire
Cousin Moe is strung up by his toes
Everybody knows that drunken fool, my Uncle Joe
Always tries his best to start a fight
Tiny tots, with their eyes all aglow
Run and hide while screaming out with fright
They know the cops are on their way
To throw Uncle Joe in the lockup for the day
And every mother’s child is gonna spy
To see how long it takes for fists to fly
And so I’m offering this simple plea
To kids from one to ninety-two
Please, dear children, pray for me
and get me the hell out of here too!

Merry Christmas, Vocal friends!

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

Off the Book
It ended like every other stupid idea. Badly, and alone. I’m researching digital confession ethics, he said. A tech ethicist. He gestured at floating data I couldn’t see then pulled out a physical notebook. Actual paper, fountain pen. He held it up like he was showing me scripture.
