"Swamp Witch Season" is a poem that's near and dear to my heart, and Solarpunk is a market I've been trying valiantly to crack for years. I'm extra chuffed that this work of mine is the one to grace their pages. 💚🐸☘️

Left: Bald and glorious Jean-Luc Picard looking handsome as hell. "Dignified, majestic." Right: Stephen Miller, Satan's own polyp, with atrocious sprayed-on hair during a press interview. It's OK to feel confident with faux hair, all the power to you (I'm balding too!), just don't be caught doing it up like a Halloween costume while *also* being a racist ghoul. "graceless loser shit"

*Remember Miller's sprayed-on hair fiasco? Jesus what an asshole.

And just because someone is queer or trans doesn't mean they're part of "The Left." Just ask Caitlyn Jenner.

WATER CARRIERS Sky Kelá gently traced their fingertips along the taut fabric of the glider’s delicate wing, brow furrowing at the faintest vibration beneath their touch. Above, the early dawn held a promise—shadows of clouds gathering, painting in purple and grey hues. It was a beauty tinged with foreboding, a silent whisper of storms to come. Perched atop what used to be a towering office building, now swathed in lush ivy and vibrant blooms, the rooftop community stirred to life. Sunlight seeped through suspended gardens, highlighting pathways interwoven among vibrant orchards and glass rain collectors, each engineered to sustain life at breathtaking heights. Bridges of knotted hemp and polished bamboo connected the rooftops, gracefully swaying as residents moved with practiced ease. Sky inhaled deeply, savoring the crisp scent of dew on the surrounding foliage. They exhaled slowly, quelling an anxious flutter in their chest. Returning their attention to the glider, fingers meticulously testing joints and seams, they searched for weaknesses. Sky knew the craft intimately—every curve, every stitch was both artistry and practicality. Still, anxiety was their companion, an ever-present reminder of that vulnerability was a basic fact of life.
