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!

The Home Sampler Facing the fine line
threaded through our lives,
he stitched back and forth,
across, then back
embroidering moments and mysteries,
darning tales and tantrums.
He would change threads
mid seam going from calm greens
to violent purples,
from despondent grays to hyper yellows--
sometimes so quickly,
the colors blurred to black.
Often I wouldn't know who
was sewing until I'd been basted
and then it was too late.
I tried to keep the green threads separate
but somehow the needle flew-tangling
and knotting until I fell apart at the seams.
