We baddies genre-bleed. We fever-dream.🍊🌵🌸 “A poetic mystery carved from the sinews of our flawed humanity. SALT BONES’ Mal may mean 'bad,' but she's as good as a protagonist gets. Magical & messy, fierce but flawed, tough yet tender, you’ll root for her from the first page to the last.” –Rudy Ruiz
I stand w/ transgender loves 🏳️⚧️ 🦋 I'm looking for where to give & how to help protect & safeguard our transgender familia & be an ally. Suggestions welcome. 🙏🏽

How many of us are poets from neurodivergence? My family played a game on Christmas Eve, the name escapes me. Madlibs, fill-in-the-blank-esque. I heard hole. I wrote what I wrote. When we showed our cards, everyone else’s was North and they stared at me, aghast. Mine was ass. The word was pole. 😱🤣
