word of the day: carcass 

she has one cardinal rule: 

death by natural causes only, no shootings.

the Fates may have cut their Threads, severed Stitches,

but Lucia breathes life back

through surgical, magical needlework,

as form and foam stand in for flesh. 

                    squirrels, eagles, lynxes, deer — all reincarnated here.

                    one woman's carcass is another woman's sculpture.
