The Surreal Fountain Pen by Bruce Boston
Moving from charming to ominous in one very short and tight story.

The Kissing of Frogs [short story] by Bruce Boston
Kissing frogs and hoping for a prince is a fine plan… but the reality of what you might get doesn't necessarily match the fairy tale. I don't know if this one was also meant to be disturbing, but listening to it right after "The Princess and The …" made it read that way.

It's Not Easy Being Dead {poem} by Bruce Boston
A take-off on Kermit the Frog's "It's Not Easy Being Green." Lots of fun.
