Yesterday’s Snowflakes
by Dee Adams
I set out to write something completely opposite of the sweet, playful style I frequently use. The minor key bell tones, the vocal distortion, and the thick, almost viscous drum tracks gave the song the eerie feeling I was imagining while writing this haiku poem of heartbreak and lost love.

It’s Robot Holiday Time Again (Affirmative, Affirmative)
by Jonathan Hughes
There are two things you should know about robots. 1: They enjoy repetition, and 2: they say “affirmative” instead of “yes.” So, in the same way that Chubby Checker wrote “The Twist”, “Twistin’ USA”, “Twist Again”, “Slow Twisting”, “Twistin’ Around the World”, and “Twist it Up”, here we have “It’s Robot Holiday Time Again (Affirmative, Affirmative)”.
