Krista Franklin at The Owls

Krista Franklin, the cover artist for Copper Nickel 13 presents her "A Natural History of My Drapetomania" over at The Owls.

Here's a preview:

The radio is a bad influence, lures me further away, summons me to Salem Mall, through its heavy glass doors to feast on the hallucinogen of consumerism. Here garments beckon me to try on, be transformed, but Camelot Records spins a sticky web, offers a hundred shrink-wrapped escape plans begging to be bagged. I leave sweaty-palmed with something to take home, my allowance pick-pocketed by the record industry.
