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!

Tweezers
A word
became
much more
than denotation.
Connotation
branched off
in new directions.
Cards signed with ‘stick’
or perhaps
a bit of a twig
glued to the page.
“Will you stick with me?”
he cajoled.
The ring
he stuck on my finger
reads ‘stick’ inside.
I gave him a
pair of tweezers
because even in the forest
of good intentions,
I knew there
would
be
splintertimes.
