I have discovered that walking a very narrow path leads to broad places of peace, contentment, and provision. After an eclectic career of nonprofit leadership, museums, education and social services, Dr. Lesley Barker is transitioning to retirement devoted to full time writing. Expect surprises to come from her pen.

Emulating Eve

It tastes good to her
That small bite of ripe plum
It
Nobody heard
Tastes
Her teeth slit
Good
The thin skin
To
Nobody saw
Her
Blood-juice drip
It
Slight pleasure
Tastes
Changed everything
Good to
Cost
Her
the world
