origfic_bingoDuring my December 3, 2013 Poetry Fishbowl, I made a whole bingo down the G column of my new 11-26-13 card. *happydance* That doesn't happen often; usually my fills spread out more and I don't bingo until a card is nearly full. This one is about half-full, so I won't be calling for another one yet.
The following poem belongs to the series Frankenstein's Family, which you can find via my Serial Poetry page. This is gothic science fiction about an unconventional family. Victor is transgender.
