About This Author
A changeling spirit,
constantly evolving,
revolving around an inner core,
spinning forth legend and lore,
stories and lives
as I come to grips
with who and what I am,
have been and may be.
I am a phoenix:
rising ever above and beyond!

So young, so kind, so happy—why then did she die?
Coroners dance with blood test results: Overdose.
Found by drunken boyfriend. He offers tequila
To the police who let him go: no charges filed.
Known drug user—fifty antidepressant pills
Are missing from three day old prescription refill.
Even drug-tracked arms don’t raise questions with police.
Family travels to Tennessee funeral
Bringing home their baby sister: Gone far too soon.
