The Maple's Sanguine Lament is published in Monsters and available at the link below and through your local bookstore and public library.

Monsters contains the short story series Demons, Harlots and Crones, which follows two generations of the Demeere family and its legacy of spite and envy. Included in the series is Demon in High Socks; Holler it out with Lemonade; the Old Lady, Her Plymouth, and Cockroaches; Sex in a Pan; and the Fire Crone and Stone Harlot. Also within Monster’s pages are fifty-odd poems exploring the darker side of human nature and its undeniable conclusion. Two Orphan Sparrows, the Devil is a DJ, the Last Striptease, Beware of Librarians Promising Freedom and many more titles are found within. Ultimately monster asks the reader to look at the darkness found within herself and by facing it, perchance move beyond.

I have one of them Voices is why I don't but I don't have anything to at the moment I might see if my husband can help when I'm ready he great with computers I just hope he knows how to do this mine sounds young and cute to most but I will let other Judge on that there's Canadian in my family so I think someone said something like that about my voice how it sounded I never pay attention to that stuff and I don't put what all is in my family I do Irish poems or ones about my roots I did one while back about my Beautiful Great grandma this was for Saint Patrick's day but I look just like her twins. you're welcome I agree as well my friend. blessings.
