Selected Work
 
the worlds
within this one –
sound of crickets
 
the inner leaves
also move
October wind
 
 
 
her eyes
say yes
fireflies
 
a note that I am forgiven
falls out of my shoe
winter stars
 
 
 
raven shadow clinging tightly to my victim story
 
mother the slow rhythmic pulse of swan wings
