Ibis of the crescent moon and believed suffering had meaning.
With her Ibis guide, books and guitar, the music in her head,
and the symphony of the spheres of the cosmos, she covered
her cowlicks with her hat, often looking back to fi nd the elusive
meaning to it all but never to placate the gods of mediocrity
and the status quo. She was subversive in that way.
