Honorable Mention When I Gave My Life to Life M. Kathryn Black When I gave my life to Life I kept nothing back. Here are the stones that have lain in my heart, here are the knives and the thorns. There is the cave where the wolf lies down, and the peaks set ablaze by the sun. When I gave my life to Life I threw in happiness, too. All of the firsts, and all of the lasts, the beautiful dance of forever and ever, and the sound of the sound that pierces so bitingly sweet. When I gave my life to Life I knew what a fragile gift I gave to myself. The lovers of death fly searching for prey, persistent as mosquitos with whining cries. I've set screens in place; go away, little vampires, go away.
