Like many other things in life, beauty... with a high price attached.

I love deadly flowers. I always have. Proof of what many of us know about, but overlook in life...

Our existence is both cruel, kind, caring, hateful, a wonder...and a bane.

Therefore, with that in mind, each poem and story in this book is prefaced by a chapter dedicated to a deadly plant or flower.

I hope you enjoy your trip into my darkly pretty, but woeful world...
