I : MAMA’S GOT A BAG OF FINGERS

Broken promises, a vanished husband, an ill-timed middle finger: Mama pays for life's misadventures one digit at a time. "Mama's Got a Bag of Fingers" is a wickedly funny tale of literal finger loss, packed with twisted idioms, grisly keepsakes and a woman who refuses to lose her grip. She pickles them, sneaks them into pies and still packs one hell of a left hook. Come for the title; stay for the deliciously dark storytelling.

II : LITTLE SPOON

A woman who'd rather be a shovel than a spoon: “Little Spoon” is a funny, prickly anthem about independence, intimacy and the exhausting expectations that come with being held too close. She doesn't need protecting, doesn't want to be anybody's emotional accessory and would much rather gnaw off her own foot than get caught in that bear trap. Equal parts vulnerable and defiant, it's a love song for people who prefer their personal space with a side of quills.

III : POKING THE HIVE

She's the queen, she's got the honey, and she'd like you to keep your hands where she can see them. “Poking the Hive” turns the language of romance into a gloriously buzzy battle of attraction, power and sexual bravado, where flowers, love songs and marriage proposals are decidedly unwelcome. It's playful, provocative and just dangerous enough: come too close and you may discover that this particular honeybee comes with a very memorable sting.

IV : NO

It starts with a drink, a bad decision and a woman realizing that saying yes once doesn't mean surrendering the right to say no. “No” is a fierce, increasingly furious reckoning with coercion, silence and the terrible realization that someone else has decided what your boundaries mean. Darkly clever wordplay collides with genuine anger as she works her way through the aftermath — until there is no ambiguity left whatsoever: NO means no.

V : SID

She's looking for true love and finds an octopus named Sid. “Sid” is a wonderfully strange underwater romance populated by mysterious lovers, extra arms, stolen ink and a man who may or may not be exactly what he claims to be. Part love song, part fever dream and part cephalopod cabaret, it gets progressively more bizarre until even true love can't survive a snake at Christmas.
