      There’s a hole in the dark,
      A pinhole pricked by a safety pin.
      I saw me do it.
      I stood on my tip toes,
      Put my finger on the back of the pin
      And pushed hard.
      It pierced the first layer of blackness.
      I saw a ray of light.
      You think you’re finished, but there’s always something else.
      It doesn’t even matter how I get through,
      It only matters that I do.

      from Issue #8 - Winter 1997

      “I am a woman of many designs, it seems. Along with my counseling and consulting practice, I have owned two nutritional companies. I developed the Visual Somapoem Process in which my clients do personal research combining poetry, music, and images to create multimedia journal entries. A recent ‘way over 50’ single parent of a teenager and three-year-old, I am writing, photographing, and clawing my way back.”
