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!

Palpable aroma of dirt and sweat
as with fierce war whoop
and plastic sword
he bowls you over, takes you out
all the while screaming
I saved the Queen
and you lie there wishing for ice for
where your head hit his imperious knee,
and are showered with grubby kisses
and dandelions instead.

Bunny is realer than real
he once told me. No Pooka, this:
I have seen her hop across cell screen:
from table to chair, to Mommy's head.
I believe. Seeing the three,
no one could not.

Migraine pounding,
slamming; raw meat
being pummeled by sledge hammer
then teen hand
gently hands you a cool cloth,
encourages a bite of food,
knows
the best kinds of silence.
