Haley Hawthorne - Cassandra Kaul

Haley Hawthorne

She was a high school dropout
and a student
with too much to learn

She let go of everything
as she inhaled her final thrill,
and took a descent
no one could control.

As she opened her eyes
to lights and sirens,
she heard, “Hawthorne, like the tree?”
“No, like The Scarlet Letter.”
